IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE HOOKING THE ALTERNATOR UP I JUST UPLOADED A VIDEO EXPLAINING HOW TO DO IT, SORRY I GOT A LITTLE AHEAD OF MYSELF IN THIS VIDEO

IF CAR WONT SHUT OFF TRY PUTTING THE #1 WIRE ON ALTERNATOR TO THE ACCESSORIES ON THE KEY SWITCH...

or run #1 wire with a radio shack rectifier diode $3 at radio shack pointing towards the alt

THIS IS HOW THE ALT IS HOOKED UP TO A GM VEHICLE... ALL IM DOING IS SHOWING YOU HOW TO WIRE UP THE ALT.. YOU WILL HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS DIFFERENT ON YOUR SET UP, BUT THIS SHOULD GIVE YOU AN IDEA ON HOW THE ALTERNATOR IS WIRED......because im assuming not everyone is putting these on ONLY GM cars now

A POINTS IGNITION OR ANY TYPE OF IGNITION COIL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ALTERNATOR HOOKUP

YOU DO HAVE A WIRE RAN OFF OF THE STARTER SOLENOID ON "I" or "R" position to the positive side of the COIL ON GM POINTS TYPE IGNITIONS THAT ARE ALL 6V...(ford may wire them opposite) .(they will use a resisted wire or WHITE ballast resistor on 12 volt systems...) but this has nothing to do with the alternator.. that is giving 12v to the coil when starting the engine.

YOU CAN SUBSTITUTE THE DUMMY LIGHT WITH A DIODE POINTING TOWARDS THE BATTERY

just an idea on how to hook a GM 3 wire internally regulated alternator up

alternator is a 79 mote carlo 305 from oreilly auto parts
