    Hot starting issues

    Battery to Alternator Bracket Ground

    Battery to Alternator Bracket Ground

    I replaced the stock alternator bracket with a chrome bracket for looks. The new chrome bracket does NOT have a hole for the ground from the battery. Where is the next best place for the ground? The Frame?

    do i need this wires and what are they for?

    The wires to the left of the motor are to your ECM, it is located usually behind you glove box. Are you running an HEI distributor? if so you definetly do NOT need them wires. They are for the ESC style dist. computer controlled.
