I was wondering if there's a ground strap on the transmission or engine. I get spark when I pull a plug wire and put a plug on and ground it, and I'm 95% there's fuel and compression, so I'm wondering if it's not sparking when I put the plug wire back on the plug that's in the engine.

Pictures, help, anything is appreciated

thanks

The bolts that hold the part of the tranny that have the ears that mount the tranny to the body. Any one of the top bolts are a good location to put the ground strap. The body should have a stud welded to the bottom of the trunk floor to accept it.
