Re: alternator wires

MY original alternator configuration writeup can be found HERE

You will need to add the larger power wire and the 2 larger ground wires if you are using the 160A alternator. You could just add them into the circuit with the original wires left in; the current will follow the path of least resistance and flow through the new wiring, not the old corroded wiring. But cutting them back and splicing is better
Here is the schematic. I removed the two white wires from the alternator (circled in green) cut them back and spliced them together. Add the new power cable and fuse (shown in magenta) and new grounds. This circuit maintains all the factory fusing.
Since one of the white wires is the charging wire from the alternator to the battery, you must add the new charging wire to take its place, if you are going to cut and splice the old ones together
