I wanted top double check my power wiring for my 2010 F150. I have two amps, one 4 channel @50 per channel and one 2 channel that will be bridged to 150.
I'm thinking I will have no problems with a 4 gauge cable from the battery to a block and splitting two 8 gauge. Kicker recommends 8 gauge for each.
Also, Will I have any issues with the stock alternator?

alot of it depends on how long the cable will be..and how much wattage your will be running

oh, and your alt will be just fine. Your only running 350 watts.

You pretty much can't get a power wire long enough in a truck that 4ga won't be more than sufficient. Put the distro block near the amps and it should be fused.

I'd run 4 AWG.

If the amps will accept 4 AWG, I'd run that from the block to the amps as well (you don't need to fuse at the block if you stay at the same AWG, if you drop to 8, you should fuse).

I highly recommend knukonceptz.com for wiring.

x2 on the knukonceptz recommendation.
