I have main ground from battery to block and block down to the frame. And a ground from the back of the block to the firewall. Rear frame to box is also needed for tail lights. Also instead of bare braided copper, which will corrode and look awful, I get the ones that are tinned. I use good quality star washers (cheap ones just squish flat) and a little Dremel tool to clean down to metal.
