Default Heat soak

Running 2 0 on the firebird for many years
It is actually welding cable. I have it on ground side also
I also ran a separate ground back to the battery from my relay panel
Relays help but with electric fans, msd, fuel pump and I have an electric water pump all those things add up to a lot of draw on the battery and alternator

You can also not have too many grounds. Our panteras need multiple grounds
added due to the poor original grounding. I have seen some high powered cooling fans requiring 50 amp fuses. That is a lot of draw. Add your load up to make sure your alternator can keep up with your draw

Not an expert but been there before
