For what it's worth, these work really well...
I sell these all day long. And I've used them in vehicle applications many times. They come in an assortment of sizes, and are modular, so they can be expanded as your needs are.
Whoops.... forgot I was reading an old thread...

Alternator?
Using the starter as a junction point is a bad idea. It will introduce a load of noise into the system while the car is cranking, the terminal is exposed to the road (corrosion) and the voltage drop is much higher. The best bet is to bring the battery to a terminal in the engine bay as I posted, then run separate cables from that terminal to the fuse box and starter.

Reviving an old thread. Where did you make your connection from the alternator? Directly to the + lead on the battery or would you connect it to the split terminal in the engine bay? If the latter, would this connection damage the other circuits (main fuse box, starter)?
The stock location however is the non-battery side of the 80A fuse. That's a fine location.
