One from the passenger fender to the frame (small one)

One from the coil to I think the block (does not really matter as long as it is grounded) (meduim size) don't use this one if you have HEI with a distributor top mounted coil obviously

One from the firewall to the back of the passenger side head (large one)

One VERY important thing to do is use "Dielectric Grease" on those connections, all electrical connections. The grease stops corrosion and enables the connection to stay good. Also, you need to remove paint to get good metal contact. Put the grease on the bare metal and rub on the connector as well - make it nice and tight and you won't have to worry about it again....

Close, but not quite.

1) Passengers inner fender to frame, near the front.
2) Coil bracket to firewall, this is on the passenger's side.
3) Rear of Driver's side head to firewall.
