Starting issue (still) 85 245, standard transmission 200 1985

I tested the engine without the plugs in and the line to the alternator disconnected. It cranked better than it did before, but still what seems to be, not that fast.

I don't know that means though. Outside of making me think it's not a flywheel thing or something engine (mechanical) related.

Still smells electrical (in the sense that I think it's electrical).

Is there a voltage regulator or something? I know there's something on the alternator, is that a voltage regulator?
