Big 3 question


Recommended Posts

Well I am finally upgrading to the big 3 for the cavi and was wondering is it ok to run the battery negative directly to the engine block. The reason I ask is because of how the stock wiring is. IDK how they did it but the pictures will basically show ya what I am dealing with.

Could I just get a new screw and nut and bolt them both on top or bolt the battery negative to the chassis on top and the chassis to the engine block on the bottom?

I have always ran it to chassis and another to engine. I think it would be better to go to chassis rather than block, seeing chassis is ground for everything including the engine. Just my 2 cents.
