Automotive electrical and computer systems are designed to tolerate up to 100% noise on their input lines. Meaning, for instance, if the ECU is expecting a 12-volt input signal, the signal may vary in the range of 0 to 12 volts. Fluctuations in signal are due to noise and resistance in the system. Noise is generated by spark plugs firing, discharges through the tires to the road, alternator turning on/off, etc. Resistance is the inability of the system to conduct electricity properly. One of the best-proven ways to compensate for noise and resistance is with proper grounding. Engine grounding has been used in the racing industry for years. The benefits have been proven and documented. The Custom Engine Grounding Kit allows for cleaner data transfer to the ECU. The result is more accurate measurements by the ECU and therefore more accurate performance, smoother idle and better acceleration. On carbureted Z's, it will help with all of the other electrical systems from the often dim headlights to the ignition system.

Each kit includes:
* A complete and easy to follow step-by-step installation guide.
* Five grounding cables made of 4 gauge audio quality 99.9% oxygen free high grade, high stranded copper wire. Each wire is insulated with a chemical and heat resistant coating able to withstand gasoline, oil, and temperatures of up to 125 degrees C.
* Gold plated ring terminals which maximize the conductivity at the connection points and inhibit corrosion. Each terminal is double crimped for strength and covered with industrial polyolefin heat shrink for that professional looking finish.
* All necessary bolts, washers, and cable ties.

Kit Features:
* Increases HP as well as Torque
* Stronger and faster starts
* Smoother idle
