Questions about distribution blocks

I'm going to be running a rockford 500.2 ampto my subs and a profile cl300 to my surrounds. I'm want a good distribution block for the 2 amps. I'm planning on running 4g to the block the 8g to the profile and I'd like to find one that will let me run 4ga to the rockford amp? any suggestions? and also I've see the rockford blocks go for about $60, is this the normal price I sould pay? it seems kinda high, but if I have to I will, just wondering. any help is much apprieciated.

you should run 2awg to the distribution block, then 4awg to each amp, the fosgate recommends that you use 4awg just for one amp, but multiple amps should be 2awg, the blocks should not be that much, that is way expensive, i payed $13 for my stinger block, it was 8awg in and 2 8awg out, u should be able to get a stinger pro series(its chrome plated) for about $20, but i would definatley get some 2awg for the amps

Look Here - http://store.autotoys.com/cgi-bin/wf...Catalog/1201/1

They have Stinger T distribution blocks. 0 gauge - $8.44, 4 guage T - $9.95, many others. Ceck it out.

I've ordered from autotoys.com before and didn't have any problems with them.
