Sounds about right :confused: Did you take a reading with an volt meter at the alternator "Battery" post? Then at the battery positive terminal? When engine is running, both should read 13.5+ volts. If not, then the alternator maybe bad...that is if your alternator is an internal regulator type. But I'm sure you know that if the alternator is an external regulator type, then you'll need to connect a voltage regulator to it.
