Topic: 2 batt system ground wire help
I will be using 2 batts for my system (street B). Is it better to run a ground wire from the first batt to the second batt or ground the first batt in the engine bay and the second batt in the back?

Ground all batteries to the chassis. No need to run a ground wire from front to back.

It dont matter. Its all prefrence. Like running Neg to the batt from the amp. It might make a diff. but try both ways and see what you like.
