Hi & thanks for your interesting comments.
In the old wiring diagram that I got with the owners book (not a repair manual) As far as I can see there is a wire that came off the original generator / alternator that connected to a regulator and then a second wire that shares the same connection point on that regulator. From there the second wire goes to what they are calling the instrument panel connector plug. It is showing this plug as two seperate parts on the drawing. I suspect one side may be male and the other female and they likely plug into each other. This is where it gets difficult to trace the wiring since none of it is color coded or numbered. The wire appears to run thru this connector and then to the (+) or positive side of the amp meter and continues on to splice into what looks like a wire that leads to a fuse on the fuse block. From the splice it appears to run to what they are calling a junction block that seems to carry the power to the upper & lower beams and marker light and the signal lite on one side of the tractor. That junction block also has a wire that leads over to the junction block on the opposite side of the tractor for those lights.
(right & left side)

I can't see any purpose for the old regulator now since the transplanted delco alternator has the built in regulator............ Could this work..............
Say I hook up another wire from the same connection point on the delco alternator that charges the batteries now and connect it to the second wire that is sharing the same connection point on the original regulator. I could disconnect that second wire from the old regulator and splice in that feed directly from the delco alternator. As far as I can determine that appears to be the 12 volt wire that could power up the whole fuse block.
Presently none of my instruments or lights are working.
I would appreciate any suggestions that could be helpful.

Thank you, The spudster.

Changed over to 12 volt alternator
