				 Just use a Capacitor....there not hard to install...Heres how 
			
			
					
		Youll prob only need a 1 Farad Cap From the battery Connect it to the cap...go from there to a distributor block...ones with fuses are recomended. from the block go to each of your amps. ground the cap and each amp by itself...dont use one ground for all 3. and where u ground be sure to scrape off paint in that area. BTW...dont drill into gas tank. someone in my bay did that once  |
