I have a 65 D100 and it has a bad alternator. The only alternators I have left are 2 plug ins, as in 70 D100 . (my 65 is the one wire plug in) Is the 2 plug style an ez change over,? Mechanically it lines up and fits fine. I even have a couple of the regulators from a 1970 style triangular VR Gordo

I speed read the problem and one comment of several other good ones seemed to pertain to my question.
That is,... CONTINUE USING OLDER STYLE VOLTAGE REGULATOR,. I can use the 2 plug alternator from the 1970 providing I bring a wire from the # 2 terminal (grd)and place the other end onto the hold down bolt for VR in the fire wall.
Meanwhile making sure firewall has proper ground strap.
Question is,.. Is that correct, or did I misread the responce?
