Why would the old external regulator still be needed if there is a regulator in the new alternator? I put an internally regulated alternator from a late model Mustang in my Pantera and (if I remember correctly), only hooked up the field wire (fat one) and another wire from the harness. That was it. Both the gauge and the light work as they should.
