Default Ground wire locations

On the rear of the block,all of the ones that go behind the intake,do two wires go to the same spot or do each of them do to their own? Pics? websites?

2004 LQ4 swapped 6.0 into a RCSB 2004 silverado formerly a 4.8,with a LS package, I had a chilton manual and have sense lost track of it.

Also will the 6.0 starter work with the stock 4.8 flywheel,it bolted up the same,and upon looking at the two of em side by side they look identical,the 4.8 starter has seen better days and the 6.0 is brand new.

Not sure about an '04, but on my '02 harness, the wiring harness should have one on the head or tranny bolt on both sides of the motor. Then there is the ground strap from the head to the firewall. I believe that's it for grounds on the rear of the engine area. Hope this helps.

I have the two of those going to the bolt next to the cam sensor and the braided one is on the back of the block going up to the stud on the firewall.

exactly, as long as you have solid grounds going from the block to the chassis and the battery in some fashion you'll be fine. it won't matter if you end up having several grounds stacked up on one fastener.
