engine grounding

according to the above, the attachment of extra grounding straps will improve your engines performance. Has anyone heard of doing this before? does any one know where all those wires are supposed to go to? it seems to make sense. if you look at your battery, and notice the grounding lead, it only goes to about 8"-12" and mounts to the body right next to the battery. i would think doing something like this would make for a better running engine, if it indeed works.

in a word, yes. it will help. as with any connection, if all engine grounds are clean and tight, then there shouldn't be a problem, but you can most certainly upgrade the size of the ground wire and add more if needed. It will help make it more electroncially stable, so to speak.
