Why was this included?
Why was this included? OK guys, help me figure this out because I have no clue. I currently own a 95 Z28 with a 98 LS1 motor and tranny. I ran my old LT1 4L60E for a while but found out i had my wiring wrong and ended up toasting that trans. So i had my spare 98 4L60E tranny rebuilt and when i got it back, it had a new engine ground strap that was attatched on a piece of string. Any reason why this was included? Theres no spot for that 98 tranny to be grounded off with a ground strap like that right?
If the builder saw signs of arching on the planets he might assume you have a poor body to engine ground which can allow current to travel through the drive shaft and gear train to complete the circuit. While I haven't really seen this issue with GM cars I did with fords at the dealer years ago and they would have us install extra ground straps from bell housing bolts to chasis
