NEED help stranded! Going to internally regulated alternator.

[lha1992]

Hi all! So just tonight i was at work (work at Oreillys here) and i was checking something on my '72 that i had done because i was helping a customer with some suggestions as to what to do for there vehicle. And as i was looking i saw the wire that bolts to the back of my brand new alternator that i had installed a few weeks back was badly burned and a total fire hazard.

I had just put in a new voltage regulator and alternator and had buzzing coming from the regulator already and this was the last stand i wanted with this so i took off my alternator and voltage regulator and returned it all under warranty and got my money back and used that to buy a internally regulated alternator.

I got a Ultima 00-0043 for a 454 or 6.2 liter diesel engine from around the late 70s just cause the hookup connections were better in my view. The one that did come up for a 350 was a 00-0039 Ultima also.

Anyways i have the full gauge package with the volt meter (or ammeter idk if thats what its called) and i keep reading that i need to wire everything different from how it would be on a idiot light instrument cluster.

So could anyone point me in the right direction as to what i have to do??? I had to leave my truck at freaking Oreilly's tonight in an area i'm not to fond of at all and i need to get it running.

Thanks
