well...did you hook-up the original negative wire from the block to the chassis?
I think you can use the shock bolt to mount your negative wie from the battery...but make sure you clean the paint out first..so you have a good connection to the chassis.

mustangs have weak grounds. i suggest doing two runs to help out with your voltage drops. also try getting a kinetik hc600 for the rear and look up how to do the big 3.
