just get some heavy gauge wire and crimp connectors and roll your own. If you want to be real slick, get *brown* wire, cut the harness apart, replace existing wire with your new one, and rewrap the harness. Eastwood makes harness tape that is basically electrical tape with no adhesive. Et voila, problem solved. If the engine to chassis ground is bad that could also keep the battery from charging properly. sounds like you are on the road to solving your issue.

If the ground cables you are talking about are *really* heavy gauge, like full sized battery cables, there is a thread on here somewhere about replacing the whole cable assembly with marine terminals and universal battery cables. I think it may even be sold as a kit by arnworx? I would highly recommend doing this if that is your problem.

good luck
