American Autowire question??????????

I'm starting to wire my 51 truck. It has a 350 crate engine. The plug to the alt. wont fit my alt. The Wiring kit came with a plug in for the alternator that won't fit mine. The kit plug had two connects but my alt. has 4, one larger and three smaller.

Re: American Autowire question??????????

Does the Alt. that you have require a external regulator?

Re: American Autowire question??????????

I assume it has an internal regulator. It came with the GM crate 350 engine along with the power steer pump and air compressor.
I can't see any identifying numbers on it but I'll post a picture of it. Hopefully someone will be able to ID it.

Big Chevy what you have is the newer cs130 alt used from 86-99. american autowire sells adapters to the earlier style alts, about $10
