[QUOTE="wokeupquick, post: 4598398, member: 591963"] Well, I didn't jack the car when I did it. I just tightened the bolt so it wouldn't tighten anymore - the bolt is pretty easy to "feel," it either is as tight as it gets or is loose enough to unscrew by hand (it felt like the other bolts on the mount, you know when it won't go anymore). I did not use the center one, as it dips down. Not sure how adding a little ring terminal will screw up my suspension, seems like it might alter it slightly, but the force of the bolt on the mount should still be the same. I used the top right bolt. I discovered that my stock block to chassis ground was extremely corroded. After doing this, the car idled hella smooth (even smoother than I had it, after doing another ground somewhere else and cleaning/maintenance work). [/QUOTE]
