These are the normal grounds, just make sure they have good connections and such (disconnect the battery if you unbolt the grounds to clean the connections):

It's always a good idea to check and clean your grounds, but as a sort of "test" take some jumper cable and connect the black wire to the (-) on the battery, and the other side of the black wire to something metal on the block. The red wire will NOT be used in this test. Once connected, try to start it, if it starts or acts different in any way, the grounds are your problem.

Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

It's to see if anything is getting into the combustion chamber that shouldn't. IE: Coolant, lots of oil, lots of gas, etc.
 
Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

^^^ exactly. seems I will have to do this too now.....

Re: Black Mamba Gen V Xp P&P Heads Build in progress!!!!

Make sure you keep track of which spark plug comes out of which cylinder, you'll also want to pay attention to what the plugs look like. Use this:

Smell the plugs as well, you can normally smell the gas and antifreeze, and you'll see the oil.
