Default Earth pick ups...

Does anyone know or have a list of all the earth points on a 1980 C3 350cu? I've got a charging problem and just want to check they are all okay....

Thanks!!!

the best pick up spot on earth is the tiki bar in isle mirada just south of key largo. a fast boat helps but the drinks they serve do just fine.

Let me try and help one of our Brit friends. I have a '72 and it has a ground cable from the passenger side of the engine block to the frame.
It has another ground from the battery to the frame under the battery box. I don't know if the '80 is similar, hope this is some help.
