Should just clarify where I'm going next with this system before I make any decisions.

Secondly, your first post said your fuse melted and you asked if it had "not enough amps". Then you said that the casing had melted, and not the fuse. The casing probably melted b/c of "not enough amps" on the fuse, right?
Basically you yourself did not state an issue nor were you aware of any issues in your set up.
Then followed 6 pages of people pointing out the flaws in your set up which you should fix, with explanations and suggestions.
Then, you even summed it all up yourself, saying you need a new battery, big 3 and some 0 gauge.
Now, you are saying nothing is resolved. So, my question to you is, what kind of answer were you expecting? You did not even really ask a question or state a real problem. No one still knows if it's the fuse that melted or just the casing?
I dont blame you for letting Best Buy or whatever do the install, I did that once too. I also dont blame you for not fiding any resolutions to your problems within the 6 pages of this thread, for one simple reason - you have to be able to comprehend the answeres to actually find them useful. Maybe it's the lack of topic comprehension on your part, I dunno. But you had been given some good advice by some very knowledable people, and to say that "nothing is resolved" only makes you look silly.
This is so sad that I dont even need to boast about myself to make you look any worse. Sorry guys.
This thread is done. The least you can do now is take all the advice and go implement it.

Firstly its FATHER Yuli, get it right.

If you were paying attention you would see I already posted saying both fuse and casing melted. Lol, get over yourself bud.
Thanks to those who contributed.

Alright, maybe you need to hear it again from someone else.
1. You need a new battery(Optima)
2. Big 3 with 0 gauge
3. 0 gauge for power wire and ground wire all around
4. Up to 300A ANL fuse in that power wire near the battery
5. Get a good quality fuse holder, that hopefully does not melt with little current
6. Make sure ground connections are made to brushed to bare metal
7. You may use your cap as a wire splitter instead of distribution block, meaning attaching 0 gauge power wire to cap positive post, running positive smaller gauge wires from the cap to amps, ground your amps with smaller gauge wire at the negative post of cap, and ground the cap to chassis(0 gauge)
Do this, and matter will be resolved. I would consider this thread closed.

Yuli, Yuli, . . . 
I respect your knowledge and years of experience - but quite often your online mannerisms undermine the wealth of knowledge that you actually have. Just be patient with a newbie. Even if the newbie doesn't listen, just reiterate what needs to be done, then wash your hands of it. Using sarcasm when a person shows naivity about installations doesn't help and makes you look quite arrogant.
Then to finish off the thread like that . . . what was the point? What did you prove?
He stated he gets it.
He said that nothing is solved because he hasn't done the work yet.
It will be solved when he does the work.
On the last 2 pages it became clear that he was understanding all the advice, and now he just needs to do it.
You're a good man Yuli - but your online tact isn't
On a the side:
Can we really classify this thread as 6 pages when at least 4 pages worth of post can be summed up as childish flaming back and forth. Really I think that there might only be 8 - 10 helpful posts - most of which were contributed by MTT

And I agree with maltese, thanks for understanding.
