Place the disto block inbetween the caps and the amps, or between the caps and the battery, Power is non directional so It shouldnt really matter. Mabye I am wrong but Logic dictates that it doesnt matter much.

double-secret reverse-osmosis speaker-cone-induced high-level interference distortion, Its a killer

Thanks a lot! My other question is my amp seems to run with the power caps fine, but do I need the other wire that runs from the battery to the amp that has a fuse on it. This is the wire that would normally be used if you did not use power caps?
