What ground wires to use on my b16?
My engine ground is preety fuked up, and was thinking of upgrading all my ground wires. What size gague wires should I use? And where should I put more? I'm thinkin of 2 on the valve cover, 1 on the intake manny, and replace both battery and tranny wires. Any suggestions?

Those may be a little big on the gauge. I'd say a 4 for the battery to frame ground and 6-8 for all the rest.

anything more then this is not going to make a difference.
it would be all for looks at that point.
grounding is important though, nice to see someone paying extra attention to it.

no you should use 3/0 for your battery ground and 1/0 for the rest. You should have no problems after that
