Question about the Big 3 upgrade.

Ok, so i started working on my big 3 upgrade and I see the this wire coming from the negative terminal of the battery to chasis.

This might sound stupid, but are these the stock ground wires? I didn't know the car has stock ground wires.

Dang, im goign to sound like an idiot if those are the ground stock wires.

Re: Question about the Big 3 upgrade.

yep, that's my thread. the top wire is the battery to chassis to tranny. that's 2 separate grounds in my kit. the bottom wire is the engine to chassis. it goes from the back of the radiator at the top to the top of the engine. left side of the head looking towards the rear.
