alternator wiring question
ok so i have an 84 f150 with an external regulated alternator and i have a fairly new internally regulator from my parts truck. i know it'll physically swap in and i have all the wiring to go with the new one. i was wondering if all i had to do was plug the harness with the new alternator in and its good or am i gonna have to rewire the plugs for it to work properly?

I'm assuming this is a 2G alternator. (external fan, internal regulator)
If so, I would say it is not an 'upgrade' for the better.
These plugs are problematic and the orange/black wiring is suspect too.
There is really only 5A more available than the 1G you already have (75 vs 70)
And the stud mounted charge cable of the 1G is much safer.
