Hi Jerry,
Truck looks Great!
I grounded the battery to the Gen. bracket bolt to engine block which is original I believe.
Then a #10 wire to the same bolt to the one of the frame bolts that holds the headlight junction block.
Also a #10 wire from one of the accelerator bulk head bolts on the firewall(behind eng. head)to the horn mount on the engine.
Also don't forget to ground the bed somewhere in the rear.
The last three grounds I don't remember removing when I dismantled the truck and can find no reference to them,but Understanding Electrical, I felt they were necessary.
TGP
