    Hey guys. I know people will get tired of hearing about the big 3 and stuff but i need to understand it lol. I have a 97 gp se. I just brought 20 ft of power and ground wire. Im gonna skip the power wire for the moment and just do the grounds. I wanted to know where are all the ground locations under the hood so i can get this thing started. Pics would help but everybody has other things to do lol...thanks
