Title: Engine / Frame Grounding
Post by: Mr 396 on August 30, 2018, 08:19:44 PM
What if any engine to body or frame to body grounging is needed with a radio/heater delete 69? Just not completely sure after looking the service manual over.

I have an original owner no radio 69 Camaro 396/375.  There are no ground straps from valve covers to body and from body to subframe.  I ordered it without a radio so it is factory.

Thanks for the info. I am still having a ground issue and was hoping this would solve it. Read on another site that engine/body/frame grounding was important as well as grounding the voltage regulator. Any comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Put in all the factory specified grounding......it's not just for the radio.

Thanks. I'll try that as I am having troubles with the alternator light staying on and have tried different ones.
