I need some help in wiring up a new 3G alternator. I've read several
articles, but to no avail in my particular situation. The problems I have
are thyis:

On my old 75amp, I have the plug for the alternator output wires (the 2
black/orange wires), and on that plug, is a piece of a white/black wire,
that I assume is the stator wire. I haven't used that wire ever, and have
cut it everytime I've replaced the alt. On the D-shaped 3-wire plug, the one
black wire is also cut, and has never been used, leaving the (I
think..)yellow and green wires. Is this the wire (black wire on 3-wire plug)
that connects to the stator wire (white/blk) on the 3G (1-wire plug)? Or am
I just missing something here?

Thanks for any help you guys can give me on this.

--Chris

formy 65FB. I am looking at one from PA Performance, and they were
very good about takign the time to explain some of the things I
questioned. You might contact them... I THINK it's

The two large black/orange go to the power lug terminal on the rear of the
alternator and the white/black wire will go to the single spade connector for
the stator.
The plug going to the voltage regulator is the same as that of the 3G's and
plugs right in as is.
I have an install guide in the TECHNICAL section of our website (see below)
which outlines the above connections.

I understand the part about the 2 blk/oange wires are going to be placed
together on the lug terminal (though, I've been told to upgrade to 4 awg
wire and bypass these). The real question is where does the white/black wire
hook to on my car FROM the alternator connector? I've never used that wire,
even on my stock 75 amp model. Do I need to run a wire to something on the
car, or is it part of the 3-wire harness (like the black wire that's also
not in use)?

Thanks,
--Chris

I will check tomorrow, but off the top of my head: this was labeled
"electric choke" on my 135 amp alt. I was told to just tape it off and
not use it. Have had no problems. I was also told to add a 135 amp
breaker for protection. You may want to ask about that.
Will check it tomorrow,
Claud

The white/black wire comes from the center position of the regulator connector
and connects to the single spade stator terminal on the 3G. Originally, this
wire jumpers from the regulator plug (center position) to the flat power plug.
