The H*** with the DA plug thing! :rolleyes: Buy the "self-exciting" regulator or "one-wire" regulator from your rebuild shop, install in alt and Hook up the big stud to your plus battery cable on the starter with 10 gauge wire (red is common color) and you're done. Won't charge at start till you "blip" the throttle up a little, then begins to charge and stays charging even at idle. One-wire, just like they call them. You need to have the big 10gauge wire to battery or term on starter where batt cable connects for your set-up too. Don't see why you need the Resistor on firewall, cept to power your coil with smaller volts than the 12 it would otherwise get. Shouldn't come off the alt at all. AND YES, you will have to change all the bulbs, headlights, and heater motor to 12 volt stuff or use reducers on the heater motor and the gas gauge too. Gas gauge will burn out shortly w/out reducer. frown
