Marshall,
The wiring in the Roadster wasn't made to handle 68amps. If for some
reason your alternator pumps out more than 35 or so amps, you can fry
your wiring.
I connected an 8 gauge wire directly from my alternator to the battery.
I installed a voltmeter so I still have a reading of the electrical
system.
