Never was a braided strap connecting the block to the firewall/elsewhere when I got the truck.

But I didn't have this problem (or notice it at least) for awhile.. It seems to be something new. (I.e. installation of the manifold or water pump.) I think the neg-cable relocation is going to help.. hopefully.
