Engine grounds is there an order ??

So just a quick question I have an 86 TPI and the engine grounds are 6 in total 3 on each side ? Also there is one griund that has teeth to bite into when it's screwed down, so my question is should I put this one ground (with the teeth) in between the other 2 ? Or should I start with that 1 ? Or does it matter ?

Mechanically the one with the teeth should go first to bite into the metal. Bit electrically it doesn't matter.... ground is ground.

Thank for the advice I did the teeth engine side and boom everything seems to be working fine ! Minus the fuel pump.

Next question which pin on the bulkhead(C100) is for the fuel pump, im trying to trace it out because i only have 8.5 volts going to it, so I'm checking all the wiring. i have an 86 iroc if I didn't mention that before
