You're confusing it with HEI; you need to bypass the resistor wire if you install HEI. The single-wire alternator is really easy to wire. I found a link someone posted earlier that explains it pretty well. I rewired mine in less than 15 minutes, including hunting for my wireless terminals in my parts bin.
