Default Engine Grounds

So I recently swapped engines and I'm beginning to wonder if my grounds are correct. I know the ground on the back of the head is on correctly. I also know that there are two grounds that bolt to the bottom of the block on the drivers side but where does the other end go? One to the chassis I assume but what about the other? And are there any grounds I'm missing?

Check your Helm's Manual (pick one up if you don't have one, especially if you are doing things as advanced as pulling a motor). Count the engine grounds in the wiring diagram and make sure that each is accounted for on the car.

I personally don't have them all set to memory. I tend to mark the grounds as I take things apart.

The 2 ground wires your talking about the front one (the short wire) grounds to the sub frame the rear one goes up beside the engine (driver side) and grounded to the frame of the car right behind the ABS unit.
