I'm not clear on the title of this post, but maybe you mean 'regulator to alternator wiring'
If you have a three wire SI alternator, the large charge wire (BATT) coming off the alternator can tie in with the BATT wire where the voltage regulator was.
The DA plug consists of two wires. DA#1 is the excitation wire for the alternator and needs to see switched power with the key...it need to be powered when the truck is running.
DA#2 is voltage sense for the internal regulator and needs to be connected to the charging system somewhere. A convenient place to connect DA#2 it the adjacent large BATT lug on the alternator.
Any remaining wires from the generator to voltage regulator can be removed and the remaining wires at the voltage regulator can be taped up and stowed.
The SI alternator denotes one with internal regulator. The firewall mounted regulator is removed and not used.
Does this make sense?
Stuart
