Electrical Bus Bar

Rewiring my 1994 Sierra with a Painless Wiring Harness after deleting the computer,AC, TBI etc.. Can I run a lead from the Battery to the Bus Bar on the Firewall, then all the terminals on the Bus Bar will be HOT?

I need to power my Fan, Fuel Pump, Lights and Power Windows.

Thanks

Re: Electrical Bus Bar

.

I did this fairly recently. The only leads wired directly to the battery on mine are starter and bus bar. Everything else either attaches to the bus bar or the starter solenoid. ALT is wired to the bus bar too. I ran 4 AWG from batt to bus bar.

I think I detect a little sarcasm here.
