Default grounding points

Are there any other points that I should ground besides the TB? What points are grounded by the aftermarket kits?

I can't believe that nobody has chimed in, so I'll see if I can remember.

TB
Both cylinder heads
block
trans (atx)
beefier ground

Thats all I can think off the top of my head. I can check when I get home in a few weeks. I will say a few things about grounding. I was having battery issues, and after grounding I've been able to run the same battery for 3+ years. This was probably symtomatic of a grounding issue from the factory, but none the less, it solved the problem. The only real differnce that I feel in everyday driving is that my ATX's manumatic is quicker to up and down shift since I grounded it.

This is good to know.
Been wanting to find some decent points to attach more grounds to (I've already done the TB ground), but just really haven't had the time as of late.
Does anyone have any pics on these grounding points?
I'm just a little fuzzy as to what's the best way to do this set up.

I may be able to take some when I get home. Mine are pretty hidden, and I daisy chained them when I needed to. I purposely bought smoke colored wires so that they wouldn't stick out.
