But you typed "Big 4" as the topic ... ???

Or was it a typo?

All you need is alternator to B+, frame to B-, engine to B-

If you have those you're good.

I'm gonna hate

You going to do a big 3 in grounding.

You will have ground from battery to chassis

Chassis to engine

Engine to battery

So each spot will have two connections going from one spot to the other, to form a triangle so to speak in ground wires kinda like a loop.

There is no other place to go for a "#4". Though I guess you could go from the ALT straight back to your amps, ... I think that would be amusing.

Most big 3 do

B+ battery to Alt

B- battery to Engine

B- battery to chassis

The #4 is the Engine to Chassis connection.

There is NO #4. That is why it is called "The Big 3".

Simply put your replacing the ground strap that always goes bad in older cars that goes from the chassis to the engine, so in effect it is a big 4 as you are replacing the smaller ground strap with a larger wire.
