You should either install a fuse holder up front, or a fire extinguisher that is easy to get to........

well thanks guys I put the fuse under the hood now and it works. There is still one unanswered question about the alternator: How many amps does it have? Here is another another one: the wire that runs to the fuse box and the starter is that a 8 gauge wire or 6 gauge?

I think the stock alt is a 110A? Not for sure I just know mine is a 200A.

I think it is an 8 awg that goes to the fuse box, I replaced it with 4 and then tapped my amp power from the same point at the fuse box. This cleaned up the battery connections alot

Thanks for moving the fuse, it is that important...
