Am I asking for trouble?

Actually If you check the tipical solution used with a wire between alt post and starter relay ( what you did ) and check the location of the main splice inside the cab, the bulkhead is not out of the game yet, because is still being feeded from outside through the bulkhead. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE is the load being shared between two terminals ( equalized ) and not just one getting more load than the other. Or actually just saving the bulkhead terminals from the load when battery is being recharged.

In most cases but not mine. I threw the whole harness in the trash including the bulkhead and rewired the whole car eliminating every unnecessary connection that I could lol. I used an American Autowire universal kit to clean up Mopars sloppy mess. Would you buy a home built in the 60's and not upgrade the wiring? None of this relates to this thread at all just thought I'd let you know where I'm coming from.

In most of our cars the biggest constant load is the haeadlights. I ran a extra feed direct from the alternator to my starter relay, then another direct to a set of relays just in front of the battery. by diverting the load of the headlights directly from the battery, I get full brightness off my 37.5W 'candles', and also reduce the risk of burnout or wiring failure at my light switch, ammeter and dip switch.
Somewhat abbreviated version of what I did, but it works well. I gained back the 3-4 volts that were lost through the original wiring.

Agreed, did the same.

Look here - Propwash and @747mopar both did this....

Definitelly all the solutions are there, all depends what everyone exact wants. Restore or replace, and keep the system working like factory did or a completelly new setup without bother on the factory setup...

Options are there.

For those who wants a resto and everything working like factory, there is a solution to keep everything in working order and safer. Just need to understand the system and fix/upgrade the factory batches.

For those who wants a completelly new solution, then there are newer aftermarket solutions or diff ways to make it work.
