    Multiple grounding points to the steel chassis are always a good idea. I forget how many I have, but it's more than two or three.

    That's why I have 2 Ron Francis grounding kits going into the 34. One for the front and one for the back. You can never have too many or too good of a ground. Paint is your enemy, clean metal, and star washers are your friend. I know the drill but I'm not sure the original builder did. I did notice the wiring under the dash was a mess and had planned on tidying it up a bit but was hoping to do it over the winter not so soon. My last rod had a dash fire causing a complete rewire so this has me a little concerned. Not freaked out mind you just concerned. That car was a nightmare. Every single wire on that car was red. Like he picked up a big spool at a yard sale and said "This will work".
