well it's a 400.. so if it grounds through the metal case then it would have to be bolted fairly securely to the truck itself to get a good ground.. but the bolts have nothing to grab.. any suggestions on that?

Adding a wire from the case of the regulator, to the negative of the battery, or the sheetmetal of the the fender, or the metal of the engine block, is a perfectly legitmate fix for older vehicles that have problems with corrosion and vibration.
Forcing larger bolts in the holes would probably work, but I think would also fall into your half-****** catagory.
