Buy the biggest dry cell battery that can fit in your engine and that has a metal casing, run 0 gauge from the front to back and 0 gauge from battery to ground. Play for a couple weeks then do your big 3 upgrade if needed. Last but not least,change alternator. That's the way I always do it and you save on cash and you can see if your changes makes a difference. If you were doing a system 250 amps and above yougot to do all the above at once. Hope the info helps!

That 140A is the total fuse rating on the amps? If yes, try it and see, you may be surprised.. :wink:

All I would recommend is to do the big 3..
