Generator to alt help?

I have a 60 with 223 and want to get rid of the generator. What make or brand and part # did you use? Prefer a single wire.

I got a wiring diagram from angus but it's not a one wire. I would like to get rid of my regulator.

I went to Advanced Auto. I told them I wanted a GM 1 wire with an internal regulator. He can out with a box that said 1 wire on the side. It was a 60 amp, he said this is all we have in 1 wire. It works great.

Take a look at my gallery. I did a GM S10 3-wire on the 292. Yep, make some mistakes, but if you look at my galley and use the web site I list maybe you'll do alright.
