As it says in title, is there 2 earth cables on the engine?
1 from the battery negative to the bodywork.
2 from the supercharger to the chassis leg

there is also one from the coil to the gearbox too, but was wondering if there was another, i couldn't see an obvious one.

Your help would be appreciated
Thanks :)

4:

- battery negative terminal to car body
- supercharger bracket to offside chassis leg
- gearbox top mount to nearside chassis leg
- nearside bonnet hinge to terminal in scuttle tray (although this one seems totally pointless)

It's also a good idea to run a wire directly from the lambda earth point to the battery negative terminal to ensure the lambda has as good an earth as it can.
