Bat charge

I did a temporary fix.
I ran a #2 wire from the Alternator across the bottom of the radiator to the battery positive term.
I covered the cable in a section of garden hose (oil proof) and just used the
threaded lug on the top of the old cable for attachment.
Now with fan on high and lights on high beam I am getting 13.7 Volts at idle on the battery. Seems good enough?

Been trouble free for 11 days now
