Re: grounding the alternator...

i think so, but im not sure where. im gonna guess and say the casing, but dont blame me if it turns out to be a positive and you mess the whole car up. i would ask some mechanics. but really, theres no benefit to grounding it with a separate wire if you have good battery to chassis factory grounds (or upgrades) already.
