Re: alternator hookup

totally fine. brown wire should b left alone. the wire you are jumping is just a sensor wire. it reads the battery voltage so when it drops below 12v it knows to charge. if this gets an insuffecent 12+ source it can over charge severly and damage batterys. make sure u use noalox or any dielectric grease on all connections, to insure a moisture and corrosion free connection. good work!! next, upgrade ur alternators charge wire (stock is alt to starter) . bring that charge wire directly to the batterypost.
