[QUOTE="Firewalker, post: 8762723, member: 676743"] See I've done the negative to engine block on several vehicles and some end up with noise regardless of the quality of the wire either OFC or welding wire including a few different spots. Talked to a few people and now I've gone to the alternator bolt to battery and then to the original ground on the bolt/frame built into the quarter panel. No more noise issues. Big 3 I do is Negative from battery to Alternator bolt, Battery positive to Alternator positive, then on the Fords they have a Positive from the Battery to the Fuse Block under the hood so one there as well and the Battery Negative to the bolt/frame that was there originally with a 2 gauge wire from factory. Will be doing all the vehicles like that from now on even friends. Of course quality of wire is a big factor as well in doing the Big 3 and a quality HO alternator of course. [/QUOTE]
