[QUOTE="martiandancer31, post: 7638430, member: 616516"] its possible that your OEM wiring connected the engine to the battery's negative terminal, and ran a wire from there to the chassis. On my car and probably many others, the OEM wiring connects the negative battery terminal to the chassis and then grounds the engine block to the chassis as well.Unless you've got an epic system planned, in which case you're probably running dedicated grounds back from the alt anyways, you will be fine with your current arrangement.
