Hi all.

I need to run two 0 gauge wires out of this positive battery terminal. But I don't know how to handle the excess connections you see in the pick? Any suggestions? Can I put 2 ring terminals on the bolt shown in green? Thank you.

There is no point in running larger gauge wire from the battery than the wire from your alternator to the battery.

IMHO - I'd remove that terminal and get yourself a battery terminal that allows you multiple 0 gauge (or lower) connections. In regards to that 180a fuse. Replace it with a AGU fuse holder (and of course a 180a fuse). This will allow you to have plenty of room to work with. Not having to force wires in awkward positions, plus this would be a lot safer. Sky High Car audio and ILL Customz make the type of terminals I'm referring too.
