Ground wire near coil. Where does it go?

Car is an '83. There is a ground wire on the driver side of the engine bay near the distributor. It's coming out of a wiring harness. I forgot to label this wire when I was taking the old alternator out. I think it goes on the screw post coming out of the fan shroud that the coil mounting bracket mounts to. Is this right? Will post a pic in a sec...

Thanks in advance!

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.

Is there any other place? Not sure though.

BTW, if you get some jeweler's rouge and a Dremel 4000, you could put a little shine on that nut and bolt.

Thanks, Dennis.

Bob, I had some parts plated when I got Mark to ceramic coat the fan. Now that part of the engine bay looks like somebody brought Lagavulin to a party where everybody else is drinking MD20/20 out of styrofoam cups.
