Electrical Questions

I was going to write a giant post, but figured this will be better

Vehicle - 2006 Ford F-150 XL

What I plan on doing:

Fi BTL 18" power by Lanzar Opti6000D

8 Pioneer 4-way 280W Max 6x8s on 50Ws each

Supporting upgrades:

HO Alternator, something with a high idle output

Isolator splitting between stock battery for car and 3 batteries in bed of truck

Big 3 with 0 Gauge

0 gauge from alt to all batteries

Fuses throughout system

Voltage meter in dash

If you assume I know how to correctly make a ported box, and how to wire stuff, is there anything I am missing or should do in order to make the system more stable? I plan on using 0 gauge for grounds, but feel like I should ask here in order to make sure everything is planned out correctly. Thanks

Also, I have read the Opti6000D is a good amp, are there any better amps in that price range? I might upgrade to a second BTL later on, so keep that in mind.

EDIT - I closed the wrong tab and made this in advanced by accident, if it could be moved to electrical, that would be lovely, I will PM a few mods to hopefully speed up the process

I would highly recommend getting some sound deadener from http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/. This will improve the sound of you're system, and reduce the road noise. Good luck

^^^^I also planned on doing this, forgot to put it in the list, but thank you for the advice.
