How many runs of zero gauge do I need

[Jeremy90 1]

This going to be my first time installing both a ho alt an wiring/installing a battary bank I feel like for the most part I know what I'm doing but idk how many runs of ofc 0 gauge I need from my front batt (duracell AMG 55ah) to rear bank (5 duracell AMG g31 105ah) 580ah total

*My battary bank is going in the middle of my van I'm thinking 8-10 ft runs of wire* maybe less 

240 mechman alt

Sound qubed q1-7000

probably going with skyhigh ofc 0 gauge

All you need is enough to carry 240a 10ft, one run of 1/0 ofc is sufficient. I would do one power and one ground run. More runs will not hurt anything but 1/0 ofc is definitely capable of carrying 240a over 10ft.

Thank you I'd like to get some feed back on a idea I had for a busbar I was going to use these since my battery's are weird at the top https://www.walmart.com/ip/Pair-Universal-Brass-Car-Battery-Terminal-Clamp-Clips-Connector-Gold-Tone/178886665?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=571&adid=22222222228052157017&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=152604451174&wl4=pla-265686942388&wl5=9016899&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=111838760&wl11=online&wl12=178886665&wl13=&veh=sem
