No ground straps for the exhaust or trans, only the eng and should be near the fuel pump probably on the front/face of the eng.

Also, a ground strap from the frame to birdcage - under the
rear of drivers side front fender. You may need to remove the
splash guard to see it from the bottom.

Didn't know about that one, have to check it out, might be why my radio gets so much interference.

Thanks Dave
