Original is easy to rebuild, Are you using a relay and battery power for amp? Maybe a simple as adding second battery or caps to the amp. Don't draw large amounts of power through in cab wiring.
When I put one on one if my FEs i had to buy a bracket to relocate it to under the head, I don’t remember where I got it but shouldn’t be hard to find. Some vehicles had it there from the factory. I have a 76 truck that had the alternator mounted on the underside also.
i personally like the one wire, easy way to up the amperage from like 45 or whatever the 1g was, and you really don’t even need to rewire anything. I think I just hooked the stock battery wire that normally goes to the external regulator to the terminal on the one wire alternator’s

Yeah I ran all the wiring for the new stereo and amp directly from battery so nothing working off stock wiring or fuse block.
Put in new regulator and reinstalled the alternator I got from Autozone a month ago(I still have the original Motorcraft that died also) and not even getting 12v to the battery when lights and/or stereo is on..only 12.2 without anything running right off the positive terminal from alternator.
On a related note does this bottom bracket look right? I would expect it go in front of the alternator not behind it.
The reason I started down this road is because the truck has an odd low rpm "miss" that also happened when the original alternator went bad and eventually it left me stranded(luckily at walmart lol)....but at that same time it was showing another same behavior where the stereo would not get power for 10-15 seconds after starting the truck which it has begun doing again.
