I am in the process of doing some work on my 6.

Old engine has the older alternator that uses the voltage reg on the relay board.


Rebuilt engine has a more modern alternator, with a built in regulator.

There is apparently some way to make it work, but I cant find the bulletin.

More importantly, has anyone "upgraded" to the internal regulator, and what do I need to know / do to my wiring at the alt and at the board.

Thank you as usual.
