Default Quick question re Starter on LS1

I just picked up a starter for my 2004 Corvette LS1. There are two long bolts that come up the side that hold the starter motor on. One of them has an extra nut, and lock washer on it. Am I supposed to put a ground there or something?

Perhaps on the solinoid of the starter where the cable goes on?

It's not the solenoid wires. I have them hooked up.

Here is a picture, and I have teh terminal in question marked with ??.

Like I noted in the post, the bolt that holds the starter motor on has an extra nut and lock washer like I'm supposed to wire something to it.

I think it might be a extra set just in case for aftermarket mods..

I too am thinking it isn't really for anything, but I wanted to ask.
