Could someone lend me a hand with the engine wiring on my '79 SN PCM 351?

I had pictures of which wire goes to which pin on my alternator but due to some computer problems I lost the pictures of my engine teardown. Could someone send me a picture of the alternator wiring, or tell me which color wire goes to which terminal?

Thanks,

if you look in the refence section and select the 302 - 351 pcm engine manaul and go to page 22 it has the wireing diagram.

I single wired mine and got rid of the external voltage regulator and solenoid. A rewind shop upgraded an alternator for the single wire applicaiton. The old Interceptor starter has a solenoid. Takes away a lot of mess and the wiring confusion.

It's been about a year since the modification and it's holding up well.

Reducing the amount of wire on a Marine application just feels right.

Did the same in my Bronco.

64 Skier-

I'm having charging issues with my 86 Ski 2001. A previous owner replaced the externally regulated alternator with an internally regulated one without removing the external regulator as far as I can tell. I noticed you posted on a conversion you did that removed the external regulator from the system. Could you provide some insight into that conversion? Was it something you did yourself, or had a shop do?

Thanks for you help
