With alloy heads the heads wouldn't be a good earth for neg battery lead ? Earth strap in to bolt on valley pan  so in to steel, but also need to earth one field on my power master alternator, anyone with ideas for this where you have earths?

I've got alloy heads and the battery earth is connected to the head and the rear strap from firewall is also connected to the head and I have absolutely no problems what so ever.
