I built a number of modified tri five Chevy cars with high compression motors, headers and AZ heat. I used the braided type ground straps in various lengths/widths. Multiple grounds to points on the chassis. Redundant but never had a slow cranking issue with the cars. Make sure that the attachment point is clean for the best connection.

I'll probably add one as a precaution in the spring when the weather heats up.

Funny I added one to my Escalade which made me buy a jump pack after getting stranded a time or two prior to adding the cable and it also fixed the problem. Now the jump pack was dead because it just sits now.

I have also had the same problem on my 2016 SS. I am on my fourth battery in four and a half years three replaced by the dealer the other person that posted a new battery makes the problem go away for awhile is 100% correct I have found that in all the new batteries that were installed that the problem was better for several months.

Hey, its's Christmas Eve - throw a new ground cable on there - maybe you'll get a Christmas miracle. But seriously I hope you can get this fixed and put it behind you.

Here are my notes. The lug nut on the radiator support is 13mm a wrench is fine. The bolt you used is for MY pulley system??? it is 15mm and was a pain with my MM catch can in the way. I should of moved it. Once I got that long ass bolt out the tension of the belt released. Damn it I should of paid attention. Now time to address. BTW I love Lethal and putting on his flex fuel kit after I deal with this BUT I had a "Super Start, Battery Cable, 4ga, 19in " I think that is an Autozone part. I had it laying around in my shop and it looks perfect.

Dan- You came up with a great idea and a great writeup. I failed to pay attention. That's all me I am very grateful of your writeup and thank you. I got worse yesterday. By forcing the bolt back in for the serpentine I bent it and had to cut it to free it up. Now I have to wait for the dealer tomorrow to order another one. I went to OSH and found one close but with the tension I cant get it back together. I am missing something I am sure of it. I tend to struggle with the simple shit. LOL Truly appreciate your writeup my friend.
