Update time. A comparison between the two, both running:

65:
- close to 15V on the pos stud of the alt
- 7.5V and 9V on the R and F terminals (can't tell which is which)

63:
- batt voltage on the pos stud of the alt
- R/F: voltage on one terminal, no voltage on the other

We already tried another regulator (both are brand new). I'll try another alternator, it sure seems like this one isn't working. When we spoke to the parts place, found out that they don't deal with this supplier anymore. Wonder why, lol...
