started on the driver side pile of hell. not much more left to do.
question though, is it possible to have to many grounds to 1 ground block? After cleaning up the wiring and making it look nice i realized maybe this is a problem?
The ground block has
-nitrous fuel
-nitrous nitrous
-nitrous purge
(those are the 3 on top)
then across the bottom:
- 3x ground that used to be on core support
- ground that used to be on the driveside frame rail
- nitrous fuel pressure saftey switch
and i still have to add 2 to it. 1 for the electric pump, 1 for the line lock.
Thats going to be 10 things grounded out on the same block. Should i look at possibly relocating some? Maybe replace the red wire with something thicc'r?

Size your grounds the same way you size your hots.
Use a calc like this and combine your multiple grounds to get what you should have for the main lead

If you truly needed the 10g for each circuit, then yes, you would want that.

Add the max current for each circuit, toss a few amps to the total, and then size the main ground based on that number.
Or, 2g and send it.

Pushlok/twist tite stuff will get you fittings without the AN fitting cost.

tossed the other headlamp and brackets in last night, as well as the trans cooler.
For the trans cooler lines, i pulled them off and cut a few inches off just to make routing a bit nicer. Clamped them back down and they do not want to pull off, but they do spin on the cooler. Think they are going to leak? Anything i can do? was thinking better clamp and pull them off and clean area with brakeclean. I imagine they are spinning bc fluid is on the fitting.

Find a race model trans cooler with NPT or AN ports to add pushlok fittings or better. Only a matter of time before those hoses soften with temp and blow.
