Ground wire with 2 amps question

Ok, just a quick question. Would it be better to run sperate ground wires from 2 amps or get a Distribute block and run one ground wire?

Thx.

Distributor block or two seperate grounds to the same bolt.

I don't see that it would hurt to have sepate grounds, as long as both were properly done. Personally, I use a single bolt, and a distro bock, in my installs and have never had any problems.

Yes you can run two power wires, but its alot easer to run 4 guage or so back, and come off of it with a disto block and two 8 guage wires. Same way with the ground wire.
