Good info Ed thanks for sharing, I wish it would work on the conventionals cause mine has a bouncing rpm not horrible, and also come close to stalls once in a while.

Would this just be on the hemi? Or would it work on the 360?

Oh great another thread on this. This thread exploded on DT. Honestly No difference no matter what car you run. It only helps reduce communications errors and fuzz between the modules etc. You can basically do this to any car that is fly by wire. There are grounding kits avalable aftermarket but you can do this all your own. I did this for shits and giggles on my wifes focus, no change in anything. I will how ever add that there is a TSB that ask for the tech to add 3 more grounds on some vehicles.

Well I should have realized the fly by wire. I am cable driven but the motor I'm looking to swap on is drive by wire

I have heard some ground the modules in the car better to just help with communication. Like the TCM,PCM etc etc. For me if I cant feel or see a difference its not worth it. Even if test prove it works. Which no one has come up with on any of the threads I have been watching. Alot of speculation but in theory it makes sense.

I'm still on the fence as far as if I can feel any driveability improvements. I think I feel a little crisper throttle response but won't swear to it. So at least on my truck, it's a subtle difference, if any.

BUT the steady tach needle at idle is unmistakable where I ALWAYS had that 200 or so RPM fluctuation before doing this. So given the cost of the mod (basically free) coupled with how fast and easy it is to do, it's worth doing it IMO...

It be worth a try just for a steadier idle

Maybe I can make a video with the thing grounded vs not grounded on the idle
