You may need to drill a hole in your frame and tap it for a 5/16" bolt.
Sometimes after your car has been on the road a short while your grounds will loose their effectiveness because of dirt or road debris and your car will become harder to start or your headlights will become dim. Real easy thing to do at this stage of your build.

Thanks Clois
I was checking out the block last night and there are lots of different areas on the block I coudl attach the negative to. Where on your block did you choose to attach?
