Icon2 Ground Cable Help

I have a 00 Si, the ground cable that goes from the tranny to the frame rail sparks every now and then while the car is running, just wanting an opinion if its a bad cable or a short somewhere or something.

is the ground going from the valve cover to the radiator support connected or even there?

Yeah that ground is there, I can't find anything out of place. I also cleaned both ends of the cable and the frame, just to try and get better contact.
