battery terminals

hey guys, where can I buy those big multi terminal things for the car battery? Thinking of adding some extra earthing, and thicker cable from the alternator and such. So would be easier to have a multiblock thing than try to connect them all to the same terminal...??

cheers

Car Audio Direct do one for about a fiver, I think it's by Stinger. Has one 4 AWG connection and two 8 AWG connections I think.

Or you could have a look on the bay. I'm going to get one for my battery negative terminal when I upgrade the earth straps under the bonnet, as there's no way I'll be able to fit two 4 AWG cables directly to the battery... having one is bad enough.

Running the earth lines through lots of connector blocks would probably defeat any benefits gained.

Short and thick is best for the battery, alt and starter.

Urm they wouldnt be running through lots of connector blocks, i just need a block which allows me to connect more to my one terminal, the distance would be the same as straight to the terminal..
