Hey, i just got my swap done a few weeks ago, and i have the battery relocated to the back using a Summit kit. As of now the negative is just grounded right to the hatch area right next to the relocation box. Question is: Should i get new cable and run it up to the engine bay. And if so where should i connect it. And where are grounding points on the engine that i should make custom ground kit for?thanksSean

i dont have a haych (yet) but i cant tell you. DONT RUN ANOTHER CABLE TO THE FRONT FOR GROUND. run it through one of the grommets in ur trunk and ground it to your fram.

Then can i connect two wires there, one from battery to frame, one from frame to engine bay, then split that into a ground system for the engine, similar to HKS circle earth or something like that?
