hi, sounds like there is a bad connection somewhere, most likely your new earth point isnt good enough. Also make sure that all the original battery earth connections are earthed in the engine bay on good, clean earths.

- What thickness of leads have you laid from front to back?
- Where did you put the ground/Mass connection? and what thickness.
- how did you connect the +12v connections that were normally to your battery.. to the new lead..
