power distribution blocks

looking into fused pdbs
correct me if i'm wrong
Positive pdb should be fused
Negative PDB no need
some one told me that for a clean ground i should just
run a new cable to back of car with the same thickness as the positive
am i following the right path? i'm going to be removing interior soon to install new speaker wiring and sound deadening. Who can i buy RAAMAT from?

oh i found a company that has the factory speaker harness adapters.

The power distribution block should be fused.

The ground distribution block should not.
If fact, you don't really need a ground d-block (except for looks).

You SHOULD NOT run a ground to the front of the car.
The grounds should be as short as possible to extend to a good grounding point.
The grounds should be to the floor of the car and should be to clean, unpainted metal.
(The floor pan/chassis is a larger/better conductor than 0 guage wire.)
