59 Apache one wire alternator.
I got a little mess going on. I did a search and there are tons of threads for the one wire conversion. It seems what the previous owner did was ran the red wire from the alternator to the battery, then the 2 small wires, the red goes over to the horn relay, and the white goes to the other side of the truck and they literally stripped the end and stripped a section of the purple wire that goes from the key switch to the starter and wrapped the 2 together and taped them.
So, my question, I'm going to buy a one wire harness and tear this mess out, which wiring schematic should I follow? I found one that uses some diode in the wiring, I found another schematic for a tri 5 Chevy. I wanna make sure this is right and of course keep my amp gauge for now if possible.
