Wiring Harness
I just replaced the alternator in an 81 F100 and hooked up the alternator wrong. In the process I fried the wiring from the alternator, voltage regulator and starter solinoide. Actually I hooked up the 2 alternator wires to the batt and ground when I was not paying attention and fired the wire from the solinode to the alternator. Now I need to replace this harness. Does anyone know where you can get one?

The Wiring harness is Obsolete, no longer made. Junk yard is the only place I know of for an exact replacement. Be aware this harness is different depending on if the truck has idiot lights or altenator gauges, as well as being year specific.
However it sounds like you blew the fuseable link. This is easily replaceable and available from Ford and auto part stores.
Altenator Fuse Link (Starter Motor Relay):
A: 16 Gauge for 40, 60, and 65 Amp altenators. (Original Color Black/Orange) D3AZ-14A526-E Orange insulation. 9.00" +/- .50 in length, with Eyelet connector.
B: 14 Gauge for 70 and 100 amp altenators. (original color Black/Orange) D3AZ-14A526-D Green Insulation. 9.00" +/- .50 in length, with eyelet connector.
Hope this helps.
