Not too sure what your question(s) are, or name.

Not sure what ammeter you have, maybe you can tell us the range of the scale.

The links to the pics on my computer are not functioning.

100 amps is a lot an can cause a lot of problems. Old original wires can be hazardous. Does not mean you need to wire the entire truck, just alternator to battery.

You really do not need a 100 amp alternator, it's really for vehicles dual AC, electric windows, electric sun roof, trailer with battery and big wattage stereo/speakers.

So seldom will 100 amps ever flow through the wires except maybe for a short period charging a really low battery.

Sorry to say I think the alternator shop guy sold you much more than you really needed. And chrome, did you want chrome?
