swapping alternater help!
 

I'm swapping an 84 engine into my 86 pickup. The alternater have 2 different plugs, the 84 has the L shaped three prong plug and the 86 has a round plug. I need to know which wires go where.

can you use the 86 alt.

no, I can't

hmmmmm. so one plug on the 84 and a different plug on the 86 is that right? i hate to say it, but are you gonna have to cut and splice.

yeah, thats what I ended up doing

are the brackets different?

swap the "regulator" thing that the plug is attached to - AFAIK those are common...

yeah they are different brackets. Does anyone have the alternater with the L shaped plug? If so can you please tell me what wires go where or post a pic. I could really use it right now. Thanks

Some one has to know.
