      Good grounds are never bad
      Even if you cant tell a difference its still a part i would get.
      Best way i can explain it is.
      1 negitive battery terminal gose to the starter, Front motormount/block, and onto the right side fender for the chassie. Getting the Kit just makes grounds to the block valve cover intake maini chassie gets it into balance and harmony

      Iam not an electrician at all
      I know enough to stay the hell away from it..

      p.s. They would look really good wire tucked

        where would you be hooking the ground wires?

          Good grounds make a real difference...

          Common problems with our CB7's include stumbling at around 3500RPM, wacky tachometers, bogging at higher RPMs, etc....

          A lot of these problems and general overall engine performance can be solved easily with GOOD SOLID GROUNDS.

          I didn't believe it until it happened to me recently.

          I thought as long as all the grounds are connected, the car should work. It wasn't until recently that I had some problems with my charging system that I decided to redo my grounds. It didn't fix my problem (bad alternator), but I enjoyed a NOTICEABLE increase in engine performance.

          My tach stopped going haywire, and my engine stopped stumbling and boggind down at 3500 RPM. Runs SMOOTH now!

          Even if you simply restrip the terminals (eliminate the corroded wire) that makes a HUGE difference.

          I don't know anything about the ebay brands, but as far as redoing our 17 year old grounds, I say, DO IT.
