Matt & Group. Because grounds are such a problem with the car, I will in the next couple of weeks make up some good ground wires for the alternator and put them on the site. So as long as the ground on the frame is good and from the frame to the engine, then we will have a good solid ground for the alternator and other things.

This is strike 2 for where my powdercoating kit has gotten me into trouble. The first strike was with powdercoating the motor mounts. I've also powdercoated my alternator mounts, and wondering why it wasn't working right. John Hervey was nice enough to call me on the phone and let me know that now I'd have to run a separate wire to the block from a bolt on the alternator. Although, as rusty as my alternator mounts were before, I can't imagine it was ever working right to begin with. thanks, Matt #1604 --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxx> wrote: > > > Sorry - it IS thru the alternator bracket, AND that bg braided wire > that goes around the passenger-side motor mount. > > Dave > > --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Matt Spittle" <supermatty@xxxx> > wrote: > > > > > > How is the alternator grounded?
