Because of the pulley size difference, the alternator turns several times engine RPM. There's no real advantage to doing the one-wire thing that I can see, other than saving a little time on the initial installation. It takes a specific part number regulator assembly on the 10 SI alternator to do the one-wire setup, according to the rebuilder I use for all my electrical overhaul. The others need at least a jumper wire from the charge output lead to terminal #2 on the 2-wire control plug. The #1 terminal is only used if you want a no charge light on the dash. Jerry
