No question or argument from me.... I just run a big cable from the block to the chassis - and another short run from the body to the chassis... when you stack up the dimension of the body - and the frame -- it's way bigger that 0-2.
I don't rely on the body mount points - or the bolts and tranny connection points to carry a ground... They're grounded securely with cable. We're doing the same thing - minus the long ground cable... so its SSDD..
The KEY is that there are great grounds! People seem to discount the ground side of a circuit... somehow that word (Circuit) eludes them...
