I put a pair of factory ground straps (one saved from a the '92 added in
parallel to the factory strap) from the block to the firewall and since
the vehicle is a unibody design that should be enough.

I can make another ground cable up from a salvaged sectio9n of # 8 cable
from a cheap jumper cable set, if need be.

Wiring????? Oh let's hope not. The vehicle had a lot of bad spots in the
harness from rats chewing on it and for a while I used solderless butt
connectors to repair them but after the cutting out started I went thru
and soldered / shrink wrapped every placed I'd repaired plus a few extra
spots.

I even had to replace the connections to the grille surround with flat 4
trailer plugs because they had melted at some time before I got it.
