The wire goes to the bolt which goes direcly to the Head = good ground

It's above the rubber insulator so it is not even touching the valve cover.

i hope you're not serious...

The ring terminal is between the metal grommet washer and the nut. The nut is screwed onto a valve cover stud and it bolted into the head.

It wouldn't come bolted that way from the factory (which it does) if it didn't work.

For my hatch I took out the carpet and traced it onto the wood, not sure if that how this one was done.
