Motor is a 72 2.2 that has bumped out to a 2.5. It has an internal regulator. Can i use this without and external regulator or do i need to convert. The motor is carbed and there is no cicuit board in the car at all. MSD 6AL, Soft Touch Rev Controller, MSD Tach Adapter all already installed. Not sure how much of the wiring harness that came with the motor I need to save. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif)

I have a brown insulated wire, not a strap. Regardless, it attaches to one of the studs on the alternator body to which the plastic housing is attached. The other end goes under a nut on one of the studs at the top of the case just behind the alternator.
Then you have the large red to the starter solenoid. The red, green and brown go to the regulator. Also, a wire goes from the regulator to the "gen" light on the dash (shown as blue wire to K in the diagram linked above). |
