mcgothigan Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Hey guys... I'm about to do the big 3 in my pontaic g8 and the batter is in the truck.. The alt positive is no problem but I'm trying to work out the engine block ground..... What are my options without putting the wire under the car..... Can I ground the block to the chassis and double up on the chassis grounding points near the battery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballen194 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 i dont understand the question. why cant you put a ground on the block to the battery? why does it need to be under the car? edit: oh fuck. i thought you were just having a spelling meltdown with the batter in the truck shit. battery in the trunk. ive never ran into this problem. id think doubling your chassis ground would be better than another run to the block. (less travel to gound point) hopefully someone thats been in this situation can chime in 98 Isuzu Rodeo Pioneer Deh-6300ub SUBS*Upcoming* SSA Xcon 18 4th order AMP Banda 3500 Mids/Highs Pioneer EQ Clarion EQS746 ETC.

mcgothigan Posted August 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Alright I hope I got this right... I measured serval points on the chassis and engine block with a dmm... All the points I want to use measure at .03 ohms and under will these be good grounding points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
