Rear mount battery question?

When trunk mounting battery, should all the wires that went to positive terminal at battery simply be moved to battery post on starter? Or should a seperate junction post be mounted on fender?
Any help would be appreciated.

What I do is run the battery cable to a remote jump start terminal and hook everything to that. And of course from the terminal to the starter. That way I don't have to get under the car to mess with wiring, especially since the headers are in the way. And I can jump start the vehicle from either end now

At this point I think I'm going to mount a remote terminal on the fender or firewall to distribute power from. Thanks for you replies.
