Putting my '66 289 back together after sitting in storage a long, long, long..... time. Over the years I have collected new and used parts to use for this restoration. I recently plugged in the 3 wire connector from the alternator to the headlight/regulator harness and noted that there is no connection going directly to the battery from the alternator(the alternator harness is new). Am I missing something here? The 3 wire plugs do not have matching wire colors. Could I have the wrong headlight/regulator harness? Is there another path that is not obvious?
