grounding

The intent is to bring all the equipment grounds to a single point. The best way to do that is to bring them all to a single ground bus. That ground bus is then grounded. Using that method eliminates ground loops and allows easy isolation of the "grounds" for testing by simply disconnecting the ground bus. Don't forget to ground the engine by a jumper around the rubber mounts. A brass "all thread" bolt through the firewall allows high capacity battery negative grounding as well as a connect for the single point ground bus on the inside of the firewall. (That assumes battery on the engine side of the firewall)
