Engine whine

I searched and found some threads....

It just started after I relocated my battery to my trunk

IT only happens when the car is running... so sounds like alternator whine.

I have changed the ground to the battery 3 times to no avail.. a friend at hi-fi buys suggested 2 grounds.. one in the trunk and then another to the frame of the car.

and he suggested a bigger ground wire for the alternator.

What do yall suggest.. IT REALLY SUCKS

I have had my stereo off several times now.. It did not have this whine when the battery was hooked up in the front.

Please help

Thanks
