Does not sound like fun. I think that you are on the right path in taking the time here and re-wiring it so that at least that can be eliminated from any future issues when it comes to trouble shooting

If I remember correctly on my 84 Monte Carlo, there was a ground strap that went from the fire wall to the back of one of the heads. It usually is one of those flat braided type of cables.
