I have that same thing in the plans for the back of my 89.
A local street rod shop used the spray on stuff(comes with its own gun) on the underside and all of the interior metal on allot of the street rods they built.The stuff is as tough as nails and actually sound deadens the metal and seals out moisture very well.....

I cleaned the ground cable connections on my 500 amp Shunt.

[Linked Image]

Those bolts have 9/16" heads. The 2 smaller flat head screws are for the sense wires which goto my battery monitor, which counts ALL amperage into and out of my batteries.

I also added another 4 awg cable from the Shunt to the House batteries. This in theory should allow more alternator current to make it into the house batteries when they are low, and the engine is turning the alternator fast enough.
