Nice to know someone knows to have dedicated grounds for some electronics!
You dont want to just pile on the grounds on one lug. This can cause a feed back to sensitive equipment, even radios.

I am starting a entirely new manual on DVD for the CR's Cobra. when it will be done I don't know but after 25 plus years it's past due. It will cover everything I know and many hints from other builders/home owners. Hopefully it will be absolutely detailed, clear and precise!

David, feel free to jump in anytime-thank you.

Wetdog, paper and pen in hand, give me a call and we will go through the entire mounting of the body- take every "self-tapping screw that came with the kit and throw them away! Couple of 1/4x10x20 taps, a couple of proper drills and a whole box of 10x24 "FLANGE" screws, (AND flange nuts) in various lenghts from 1/4" to 3/4" inch in length! I'm ready when you are!
