Scoobymods has a couple of threads on this,
Here's one,
http://www.scoobymods.com/forums/sho...=ground+points


IIRC,
1) Pass. strut tower bolt
2) Pass. side mani
3) Throttle Body
4) Driver side mani
5) Negative terminal (Battery)

That's from the install instructions of a vendor of grounding kits here on this board, whose name i can't remember at this moment, jeez! Been awhile since i did this to my GM6, calms down the idle, FWIW, GL!

thanx, that helped a bit. the reason i asked is i bought a ground wire kit from sun auto, but the instructions that came with it were really vague. it gave general points but i heard that you really have to play around with different points to figure out the most effective ones. that just seems kind of a waste of time. i'll try using my multimeter on it and see if i can find any more useful locations. thaks again.

The guy who made this thread seems to me to be pretty smart.
