I've tried to find some good pictures of each variety, but so far nothing wants to upload to my photo host site properly. Just search the following names:
Delcotron 1-D
Delcotron 10-SI
The differences are pretty obvious. The two blade terminals on the 10-SI are part of the internal regulator. There's a way to bypass the 10-SI regulator to see if the alternator or the regulator is responsible for a "no-charge" problem, but trying to describe the procedure without pictures or a video is sort of confusing.
