You can just ground it to the frame...I did it that way on my Buick with no
rroblems...Keep in mind the race track may want you to have an NHRA approved
cut-off switch...if they see the battery in the back...Just dont open your
tonneau when you go into the race track...or put a fakie in the factory
location...just get an old battery and cut of the top, remove the lead and
acid. Or better yet try to get an empty one from a Tire/Battery store that is
being discontinued.
