i hate to sound dumb but the one wire coming out of the transmission will go to the wire on the button and the other wire will go to 12v power source correct?

let's see , ground wire bolted to vb , vb bolted to case , case bolted to engine block, engine block grounded to - battery terminal , Arcing ?? don't really see a problem , now if it was grounded to the output shaft it would be a different story!

We've seen tons of steel arcing with glides and C4's from various companies when grounded in that manner.  We've never had a C6 back in after we built them to see on those.  I was asking about your particular valve bodies in this case in which I have never laid my hands on.

Thanks for the input.
