[QUOTE="Kangaroux, post: 7551833, member: 628495"] For the box you should be fine. If you really want to you can put a thin rubber washer up against the wood, but that will only do so much considering the bolt that is in contact with the wood on the threading will be in contact with it. I would suggest using wing nuts on the end just to make it easier to rewire stuff on the fly. I wouldn't bother fusing the alt. If the connection is tight you shouldn't run into any issues. You should be concerned with the alt randomly putting out a ton of voltage rather than spikes in current. You can keep your current engine block ground. Grounding to the alt isn't necessary, though it will reduce the resistance of your ground. [/QUOTE]
