few questions about UIM and LIM swap

[SappySE107]

You want to run heavy gauge wire from the starter to the trunk, where it will go to the battery. No adapters, just 1 solid line front to back. If you put a fuse here, its gotta be huge for the cranking amps. The ground can go to the trunk or run it back up to the front and ground it on the block. 0 gauge would be a good idea.

Sounds easy enough, thank you for all the help , so 0 gauge is heavy gauge wire right?.

[SappySE107]

Yup. 8 gauge is used for small amp setups. 4 gauge for 500 watts or whatever. 0 is even bigger.

thank you so much. how do you recommend i secure the battery down?

[SappySE107]

Get a battery box that will screw to the trunk. Most parts stores will have something. I highly recommend a sealed battery as well such as an Optima.
