So it's a ground and should be piggybacked to the braided firewall ground?

Yes, It gets bolted to the back of the head in the same exact spot where the braided ground strap is connected to the head. ( both of them mount on a stud at the back of the pass side head ) .


(FYI Kinda' hard to access this spot with automatic cars - Dipstick tube gets in the way !!! )
