IIRC, here is how my car is wired. I created a few central distribution points (one seen here), and used ford type starter solenoid, so basically there are no wires to the starter but the normally dead positive cable. Big battery cables and very good grounds are key to good system performance. Star washers for all grounds, solid connections (i.e. no crimp jobs) are also a good idea. Those negative cables you buy with the strand of 12g hanging off it? No good.

If I start loading up the electronics, bigger wire would probably be needed from the BAT terminal on the alt, but then I can’t use a fusible link and I’d have to come up with an appropriate way to protect the circuit. Other then that, I’d be ok as long as I run new power circuits off that point.

Where does the BAT terminal wire run on 3rd gens? I don’t remember anymore.
