Internal vs external regulation
Hello what is the difference between external and internal regulation? I guess the real question is when figuring out which wire harness I want to use I noticed that one has the wires that go to the voltage regulator on the wall and my other does not have the wires. If I use the one without the wires to the wall regulator do I need an internally regulated alternator? Hope I didn't confuse anyone

I had to go back in your history to see what we were working on! 1970 Cutlass S. Factory would be wires headed back to the firewall to the external regulator.
I guess the next question would be which style alternator do you have and which way you do want to go?

Before swapping over to internal regulator with a plug and play "kit", read this post.
I ran across the EXACT same issue over at one of the corvette boards.
Either will work if wired correctly.
