Im going to be mounting my battery in the trunk of my 93 honda civic si.  Now I am currently installing the 300A alternator that I have and will be running a 0 Gauge wire from the alt. to the battery in the trunk.  My question is this...what gauge wire should I run from the battery to the fuse block under the hood?

Thanks

What is the fuse block going to be supplying power to? Is it a replacement fuse block to the original fuse block, powering all the standard accessories in the car, or is it in addition to that one?

Generally speaking, a #4 would be an acceptable answer, but it MIGHT be a dramatic overkill.

Sorry I didn't get you an answer sooner, dude. I read your PM, and right after that, my computer crashed... Well, more like I crashed my computer. LOL I was trying to fix an IE issue, because I couldn't post anything, and 'blip'... GONE! Rebuild time!

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
