Those are poor if not outright bad ground locations. you should not ground to aluminum unless you have no other options. Grounding to the sheet metal when the frame is right below the battery is a poor decision.
I would ground right to the frame of the truck. Way more solid connection. You might have to tap and drill into your frame, or you can get one of those cool grounding Adapters and hook it to your frame
You should ground engine, body and frame together. People seem to forget that amplifiers are usually grounded to the body. And if the body isn’t grounded to the frame or engine properly, then it’s causing high resistance. Hence dimming headlights when bass hits.
What you touched to that bolt on the positive lead 🤣
Looks clean man I have a 04 chevy I'm doing the same to so glad this popped up I'm gonna copy your work.
Don't this is not a good job.
You need the bigger 145 amp alternator
Napa sells the 160 amp. Might need the longer serpentine belt
He needs to just get a high output 320 from Autotech and call it a day 😂
Thanks for this video. It answered all my questions
they make a battery that has side posts and top posts

Where would you ground them. I'm new at this and this is my first time knowing of any of this.
Grounding on the chassis is worse the body mounts are rubber
