I plan on doing the exact same thing within the week. Upgrading the neg.
ground straps and improving the groungs on my rocco and rabbit.

Which ground straps do I 'upgrade' and to what size.  I think that there's
the one from the battery neg. post to the tranny.  The alt. will be
grounded to the head/block. Are there any others? I can't remember where
they all are?  

BTW, what does the ground strap from the fender (or there abouts) to the
hood do?  Is it necessary cuz the one on the rocco is broke!

TIA
