Now time to get everything under the hood done

usually recommended to ground to the strut tower. don't see how it can hurt though when you have two grounds like six inches from the tower though lol.

wish I had the balls to wall my car haha

I'd try to find a better ground point than the fender. Just me though. I ran mine down to the motor mount bolt.

Lookin good!

Get some toolmaker battery terminals made and add a ground to your strut tower. How's your rear ground? Any new updates?

Lookin good so far sir.

Typically u want to keep grounds as short as possible another reason i went this route, just made it easier to work

You do good work man. Tuned in, fosho.

Those little 3.7's are fun as hell, eh? Drove a 'vert with the 6 speed awhile back. Definitely on par with most 4.6 cars. Any plans for an exhaust?

thanks fella, just keeping it this way, the stock ground goes to the strut tower also which is stil used even though it's small, wanted to do minimal hacking to this instal that's why i chose to take a lot of different routes in this instal, left all stock electrical in also the power is also fused on the car to for the stock wiring so not messing around with that either just leaving it how it is

Oh I hear you there man, I'm sure its a beautiful car sir. I just noticed a huge difference after I changed my grounds from fenders/support bars to all strut towers and it was so noticeable I went from 12.4 full tilt to 13.8 full tilt. No changes.

You would have to grind out the lug to the size of the strut tower bolt, but beyond that it wouldn't have much hacking at all unless you consider the small painted area you would need to sand. I'm sure if you were extra careful you could get it to be almost the exact size and shape of the lug so you can't tell it was sanded when you open the hood.

Either way I hope to see some more good progress on this build. Please don't think I'm trying to tell you what to do with your car. I was simply sharing my excellent experience and it might be something to consider.

Tuned in sir.

Im sure its fine, an upgrade is an upgrade. But Id rather have a bit longer wire to an ideal location vs. a short wire to a less-than-ideal location. Again, just my opinion.

You didn't say what subs and amp you got.
