Basically, a front mount battery needs to be grounded to the engine, which handles the heavy starter current. The regulator, mounted on the body, as well as accessories such as lights and heater, need to be grounded to the battery neg. So there needs to be AT LEAST one big jumper from the engine to the body, or from the battery neg. to the body. If the battery is in the trunk, the battery will be grounded to the body. A nice big jumper needs to be from the engine to the body

A 70 charger does not have any wires coming off the trans except the N/S switch. [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/pui5j.jpg[/IMG] Coming soon!!!!
