The factory wire grounds onto the chassis as well as the block. How is your new wire grounded?

is your battery tied down? If your battery isn't secured it'll rattle around when you're driving and cause "noise" within the battery and cause the battery to go bad which puts strain on the alternator which can fail sooner rather than later.
