well i just finished up relocating my battery to the trunk, also hid all the wires. everything works with the exception of the starter, it will not engage? im not sure what the problem is? I used 1-0 cable for my lead wire to the fuse box, 1-0 wire from the battery to quad shock, and 1-0 wire from the timing chain cover to the motor mount bolt. Also ran a new 4 gauge wire for the alternator. any suggestions?
relocated battery need help!

Here is how I did mine. I ran an upgraded wire from the alt to the back of the car where my kill switch is located and also the battery. Then you run a + side up to the starter soleniod. I have my - to my quad shock.
Does this make sense?

yeah it makes sense, im not using a kill switch so heres what i did.
i ran 4 gauge wire from the alt. to my fuse box, then from the fuse box it was 1-0 wire all the way to the back, to the + side of battery. then from the - I grounded it to the quad shock, with 1-0 wire. then went from the timing chain cover to a motor mount bolt with 1-0 wire. what do you think? does everthing sound ok?

Like they said you need to ground it to the chassis some where on the frame is a good spot. I would think you need a wire running to your starter soleniod and another wire running off the other post to your starter. I have a fuse breaker in the back but thats because I have to have it in order for the kill switch to work properly. Are you talking about a different fuse box something that isnt the stock one?
