Mine has a very small cable hooked to the battery box. I’d like to make this right. It never turned over very good. |

| this observation has nothing to do with a G. I've always found grounding back to the engine block with the correct sized ground cable or bigger, helps starters work up to factory standards! |

Thad, it mounts to the front box mounting bolt, a good #1 or a heavy braided cable is needed. A good clean connection to the mount and to the shifter plate is also needed. I usually add another cable from the back side of the bracket to the starter mounting bolt just to guarantee a good ground.   ------------- Allis Express North Georgia 41 WC,48 UC Cane,7-G's, Ford 345C TLB |
