[QUOTE="sethbuckner, post: 6679845, member: 617938"] ok the only thing i'm confused about is the chassis to engine block. 1.) so the alternator positive to positive terminal on battery. check.. obviously 2.) the negative battery terminal to chassis. check. easy 3.) so also ground out the negative battery terminal to the engine block? or randomly run a ground wire from somewhere on the engine block straight to the chassis? **so my question to sum it up is ground your battery to the chassis and engine block?** [SIZE=24px] OR [/SIZE] have 3 wires = one from + alt to + battery / one from - battery terminal to chassis ground / one from random place on engine block to random chassis ground? the reason why i'm confused is because on my 07' volvo, my negative terminal on my battery was two wires, one going like 10 inches to the right to the factory chassis ground, and the other ground wire going in and out of sight down into my engine compartment. where i was first guessing is connected to my engine block?
