[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 5313653, member: 549629"] You should know I dont post info without being able to back it up. Might want to consider that next time when deciding how to word your response to me. Its okay, you are forgiven. How much metal is in your ground wire? Now, how much metal is in your vehicle's chassis? The car has ALOT more, doesn't it? More metal means less resistance, doesn't? Less resistance is a good thing, right? It varies from vehicle to vehicle, but most cars will pass current just as well, if not better, than using a dedicated ground wire (unless you grossly over-size your wire). A full-framed vehicle, for example, will display much less resistance via a chassis ground than will any realistic sized ground wire. So, knowing your full sized Chevy's frame will act perfectly well as a giant buss-bar, wouldn't it be rather silly to spend all that extra money buying copper to bypass the chassis? [/QUOTE]
