If so then this is the ground for the PCM.

6-10" worth, whatever is required to give the wire more "play" (i.e extra length).
I found that that ground wire on my car was just too short if you need to get your
hands in that space. Slide one end of the new wire into a ring-tongue terminal
and *solder* the wire to the terminal.
(Example of ring tongue terminal)

Get some shrink-wrap and slide it on the wire. Next, take the new section of wire
and twist it to the existing-wire's end (expose some or the original wire) and then
*solder* the two wires together - dont use those crimp couplers! After the wires
and solder have cooled down, slide the shrink wrap over the and shrink it.
Connect the terminal to the block ground post.
Well would this prolly be my problem? I mean the car will crank and crank and it will pop out of the exhaust but will not start at all! I doubt this is the problem but i will fix it and see

Wierd that it's grounded down there..I never thought about that.
I had to make a ground for the LSX PCM when I did the Swap. I used one of the Green AC Wires on the Connector on the Wheel Well and made a Ground out of that going to where a few bolt up to right behind the Fuseable Links on the Passenger Side.

Are you getting spark and fuel? If you're getting spark but no injector pulse (but have good psi) then check the TPS voltage, if its pegged at 5ish volts then it wont pulse the injectors, easiest way to do it is to unplug it and see if that works. But first you need to check whether you're getting good spark, fuel pressure, and injector pulse. If you're getting none of that it could be the opti being that the low resolution signal is used for firing the injectors as well, if im not mistaken

Check for spark, it's probably the opti, more than likely.
Are you talking about the three wires grounded to the Bracket for the coil? The opti on it has 0 miles on it. Put it on and would not run.
The coil has spark..... i haven't checked at the plug yet... I need to do that tonight when I get off work. So I take it if theres no spark at the plugs there has to be something wrong with my brand new opti. Its on right I made sure i put it on right im 100% sure its on right
