Unless it's a perfect resto, I'd put a ground strap from the back of the head to the mounting bolt for the VR, then you know it's as good as it gets. I'd rather do that than scrape paint off the firewall for a good contact anyway. Heck I even added a ground from my alternator case to the block, but I don't do resto type vehicles. They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
