Re: [Chevelle-list] Single Wire Alternator

[Shawn Price]

Nevermind... after doing a bit more research, I already have an internally regulated alternator on the '69 Vette. Apparently the mass of grunchy looking wires in the fender well is the horn relay. So, I'll just re-solder the connections, get rid of the wire nuts (swear to god someone used wire nuts on this thing) and be done with it.

Thanks for following along with my internal dialogue.

Today I'm working on my '69 Corvette and need to replace the alternator, but after looking at the wiring, I would rather get rid of the external regulator and put in a single wire unit. I know I've seen some stuff come by regarding this conversion, but can't seem to find it anyplace on the web, does someone have it handy? It seems like the best alternator to get was one from a '90's chevy truck, but I don't recall what year. Anyway, thanks in advance, and the sooner I get this car fixed, the sooner I can get back to the interior of my Chevelle!
