That kit looks nice and you are correct. Stock was battery to engine, engine to body, and some cars had a small lead from the battery to the body (fender). Anything more is a badly needed upgrade. Good to see you back and still working on it.

Most of my grounds I made from welding cable, for my trunk mounted battery I have a 1/0 going to the frame and a #2 going to the body and up front I have two large braided straps coming off each side of the front of the engine an upgraded fire to block ground plus a few other 1/0 grounds to tie everything together I would rather have too many grounds than not enough.

Well guys it’s been a long time since I have been on here but life got in the way I ran into some members during my time away loved seeing all the gbodys. Here’s a little update I haven’t gotten much work done since I got a nice new truck but I got my trans pan on and the car has some how got more apart then the last time I saw it. Bit updates will be coming soon as the rush to get it done is upon me girlfriend says it needs to look like a car for me to keep it on a side note does anyone know how much fluid a th350 takes with a b&m deep pan?
