Thanks for making go back and read that article TJP.
When the author stated that a bad ground will make you go chasing your tail, I had to laugh.
And then I checked the ground listed, and I completely forgot about the engine ground.
It was never there when I got the car back from the paint and engine install. And the bolt that attaches to the rear of the head was missing after I got the heads rebuilt .

So I went off to the auto parts store this morning to put a generic one on there for now and get some bolts that would work.
I checked continuity throughout the install and fired up the car when done.
The ammeter needle slowly went to near center and stayed there.
A little shake but it was idling and not completely warmed up.
So I took her for a 20 or 30 minute ride, and I'll be damned if the thing didn't stay near dead center without a shake or shimmy !
So it looks I am good to go and onto other things and hopefully drivin' her around more religiously this season .
Oh and even got invited to a car show by someone who saw me at the gas station and stopped and asked if I could bring it to show he was sponsoring. smile

Thanks again for everyone's help.
