I have not figured it out yeat neil. I found a grounding strap, it goes from the intake manifold to the fire wall. The intake manifold is aluminum, Im under the impression that aluminum is not a very good conducter, but Im not sure where starp should go.

Aluminum is pretty good.

But how about corrosion on the bolts the strap is attached with?
