If you are intimidated by wiring, why do you choose to install a GM alt that requires modifying the wiring? My advice, go the same route Ron (rlee63a4) chose, install a rebuilt Ford alt with a 100 amp kit installed, and a new solid state voltage regualtor. You won't have to give the wiring one thought, just plug and play.

Good post Ron, I wasn't aware there were 100 amp kits for the 70's vintage small case Ford alts. That really looks like the best approach for folks who prefer to keep the wiring stock, for whatever reason that may be.
