The one wire GM's use a special aftermarket regulator. You can make the 70's/early80's Gm alt's 2 wire by just jumping the sensing wire to the output wire. Try to find a diagram for the year alternator you have. Or tell me the year and model it came off of(maybe the wire colors too) and I will see if I can find a diagram.
