    Changing to non 1 wire alternator hook up???

     



    ....Hi Everyone, I need to get my '32 running while I'm waiting for a new 1 wire alternator to be shipped to me. So I want to get a regular hook up alternator at the local auto parts store. But how do I hook up the wiring??? THANKS, Bill

    Buy a plug to go into the built in regulator, hook the heavier wire directly to alternator output, and hook the other to a switched 12v source. You have to use a seperate swich to control this,if just hooked up to ignition on it will backfeed and you won't be able to shut the engine off. Hank

    Anyone can cut one up, but! only some can put it back together looking cool!
    Steel is real, anyone can get a glass one.
