Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"

Thank you for the props.
I have installed grounds from the frame to cab kind of like what was stock.
The ground you see is basically for the amplifiers only. By installing the ground stud in the original nut that is welded to the cab that secured the original gas tank. I added the 4gauge ground to each amp then a 2 gauge ground under the cab to the frame.
From my experience the ground loop (engine noise)is usually caused from the signal equipment. Stereo, EQ etc.
I hope this makes sense.
I hope to get back on the truck next week.

Most places I read say to use the flat ground straps instead so you don't get feedback into the wiring system causing things like your speakers to have feedback from vibrations and engine revs. What are your thoughts on this?
