Braided Plug wire grounding?
Hi All,
Installing some steel braided plug wires this glorious Saturday afternoon. The instructions indicate that these wires have to be grounded to the engine. Can I run the ground wires to the chrome valve cover bolts? If not, where/what should I ground these wires to? The ground wires that come with the plug wires are pretty short, so it looks like they should go to the valve covers...
Thanks!
Greg

Re: Braided Plug wire grounding? (trw)
:iagree: The stock configuration is two grounding wires to every other valve cover bolt rather than one wire to each bolt. If I remember right, it's to the 1st & 3rd on the driver's side, 2nd & 4th on the passenger.
[EDIT: whoops, you've got a '77, so there's no "stock" configuration.]
