Red face alternator hookup

hi you all, recently changed my alternator to a 1 wire setup. Is this a safe way. I modified the 2 wire plug with 1 wire. Took the hot wire 14 gauge on the left side of the plug and jumped it to the hot post in the back of the alternator. Removed the other plug wire. Took another wire 10 gauge to the positive batt post. The alternator has an internal voltage reg. Also, will the alternator get recharged with this hookup?

thanks for any suggestions, 73gmc
