Vernon,
Just to be sure I'd put the voltmeter directly on the alt's output
lug. If you car has the original harness, the wire that charges your
battery could be corroded causing a lot of resistance between the alt and
battery.
If I remember correctly, the alt has to send power through a lot of
places before ever reaching the battery, such as the fuse box and instrument
panel.
The best person I could recommend for you to talk to would be M.A.D.

Thanks for all the info guys. I have tried just
about everything I can think of. Herb ,I tried a volt meter at the
battery with the car running, same thing. One more question, does the
charging system run through the fuse block? I have always had trouble with
it as some of the connections are very rusty. I am thinking maybe that is
where I'm getting to much resitance at a bad connection. ??? Thanks,
