Wired my battery to my trunk, now I have a 2 to 3 power distribution block from knukonceptz. Preciously the car obviously went to the fusible link box with the power terminal for the battery. Just curious where do people relocate these? and how exactly do you rewire them? I have the positive terminal into my bay and connected to the block but I'm sort of stuck here.

I feel like this is sort of a dumb thread but I cant find any very solid info on finishing this up LOL Thanks guys!
 
Putting at least the largest fusable links right next to the battery, similar to how it came from the factory. That way if a major power cable gets damaged the link will blow before a fire starts.

I cut it off *GASP* and used a fused distribution block for the RAD/MPI/IGN wires:

I have a fused distribution block but just one of them. Not that many. I have one into the bay straight off of the power wire from my battery. It has 3 ports. Should I mount this fusible link somewhere in my engine bay and run a power wire to it? Do I get rid of the battery terminal that's on it?

Then I will run another wire from the block to my alternator?

Sorry for the confusion here I just want to make sure I do this right..
 
Can I just relocate this thing to next to my fusebox and then run a power wire to it or something? Can I delete the battery terminal and just keep the little fuse box? I'm confused what to do here. I want it ran the cleanest way possible but not relocating it to the cabin of the DSM.
