I was tearing apart my wireing harness to see a large mess. For all you guys with sr’s in your cars i recomend that you replace your coil pack grounds. I took mine apart and seen all 4 wires crimped together and covered with tape and then it bolts to the back of the block. So I took mine and sauderd a larger 16 gauge wire and heat shrinked it and dubed them to 2 conectors and relocated them to the intake. Doing this I also recomend doing your ground from your batt to your intake and to your frame rail in a 2 gauge wire with some good conectors so you dont get too much resistance and better continuity. Doing this gives you better, more crisp throtle responce. I will post some pictures later.
those pictures of the coil pack grounds would be appreciated when possible.
Yeah post up some pics!

Pics??
Well it only took me about a year to get these pictures up but i finally got a camera a computer and photoshop
In the first pic you will see the whole coil pack harness. In the second pic you will see where i cut off and extended the wires. In the third picture you will see how i dubbles up wires to 2 hoops from the coil packs. I just attached it to the intake manifold where the other grounds from the other harness goes to. I made sure the are was clean and had no resistance.
This mod gave me a little better throttle responce and better spark at higher RPM’s

Why did you crimp the connectors on? Why not take off the plastic crap and solder the connectors on? That way they will resist corrosion better, and provide a more secure connection. Go over the top with gold plated terminals used for car audio applications, and silver solder. I always solder all my terminals on, and my wiring rarely fails on me.
Just my 2 cents.
There is salder in there you just cant see it and there was no resistance with those shitty conectors. I just was doing it for now cuz I was going to redo the whole harness during winter and was getting the nice conectors then
