Default 1996 k1500 vortec - engine grounding

Does anyone have a description of all the grounding points in the engine compartment? I dont read schematics well, so pictures and simple descriptions are better.
Thank you

If you mean engine to ground points, you really only need one GOOD one, but two is better. Choose a place on the frame and attach a grounding strap to it, then to a clean ground on the motor block. Leave enough room for engine rocking on the mounts. Make sure your batteries' ground cable is in good shape with no corrosion or rust at all. Same with the power cable.
