<<However, I've been told by many a car enthusiast, (American car guys),
that
I should move my ground strap to the engine block.  I think it has something
to do with more efficient starting.>>

As long as the motor to chassis ground strap and the batt. to body are
squeeky clean, all "should" be well for years.

That said, I would surmise the Hod Rod folks could be on to something as
that IS sorta what MG did in later "B"s.
A seperate strap went from body to engine utilizing the left front engine
mount<G>!

So we are ALL "right"???
