https://www.gen5diy.com/products/10-...f055aa2f&_ss=r I don't see how they routed a 20inch zero gauge cable from that bell housing bolt to the frame. Looks to me they bolted it passenger side engine cylinder block, then used another cable from the block to that frame bolt. Regardless, you stated you did it from the tranny line bolt (bit further back) to the frame instead. I was thinking the same thing, but just wanted to see how it's held up? My main concern is how close the wire is to the mid-pipe/tail end of the header. I may need to downsize to a 4 gauge wire instead to get some better flexibility. Used zero for trunk and driver side engine ground, but not nearly as much to bend there. Really if anyone else has some info on this it would be appreciated. |

I had zero issues and it fit fine, I think zero gauge is a bit overkill.

Yep, knocked it down (up, whatever) to a 4 gauge and used about a 24inch wire 5/8 one end the other 3/8 and was able to go from the tranny bell housing to that bolt in the frame. That 0 gauge was the issue, couldn't work with at all. The 4 gauge I was able to bend around a harness and sort of tuck in between the heat shielding (whatever that flimsy metal is next to the frame) so it would keep off the headers.
For engine bay used 20inch 4 gauge on driver side block to frame. For battery used 18 inch 0 gauge from negative post to frame. Engine starting much, much better and quicker now. We'll have to see how it does when it gets hot, but right no satisfied with the results. |

0 Gauge is probably overkill but hopefully you are good to go.
