I do understand stand it to a point. I have 4 wires from by original positive terminal that need to go into the fuse block (2 of them are 1/0) and then only 1 1/0 wire leading out. Then my negative terminal I need another fuse block I think to put 1 1/0 and another wire (4 gauge I think) into and have 1 1/0 coming out of there going to my trunk.You do not need any distribution block. You will replace your front battery with this fuse block (or anything functionally identical) which will act as the positive terminal in the engine bay. The side of the fuse block with the numbers is the "input" which is where you connect the alternator hot wire. Everything connected to the factory negative terminal must be connected to the chassis/block, which becomes your ground up front.

(there will be one more wire connected to the input (or output with another fuse), the prefused one that you mentioned earlier)
I can elaborate further if needed. We could do a voice call too if that's easier.
If you haven't done something like this before it can be hard to wrap your head around it at first.
A voice call might be best since we’re talking back and forth a lot. This is only the second day trying to understand all of this and how to do it.
I posted on another forum and somebody said this (picture below) I don’t have a voltage management system connected to my battery but I do believe I have a voltage regulator that is somewhat inside of my alternator, I’ve heard that would change up how I would have to wire it up.
