I used this arrangement, along wit 1" braided straps around each motor
mount.  So far no ground problems.

Personally,
I like the ground lead to the block,
then the body bonding strap from that lug back to the body.

That way, if you do lose the connection, the body will never be grounded
with an ungrounded block.
