when you turn the key to on, will the heater blow, or turn signals work?

Update: I have no power to anything headlights, turn signals, or anything.
I did check all the fuses and they are good. Also the PO upgraded to HEI but left the external alt. and volt regulator.

I also took some pics to help with what I am looking at.

pics are the following:
1. external reg. alt.
2. wiring at the battery
3. The yellow wire that is connected to the HEI battery terminal
4. Wiring to the starter solinoid.

As you can see on the solinoid. The heavy guage wire coming from the battery is connected to the top post.
I looks like the purple wire is connected to the right post, and the yellow wire is disconnected???
