I've read through the IPD alternator instructions and my Haynes manual for the 245. This particular unit, from a fuel injected 76, does not seem to have a regulator installed. The exploded diagram as well as my opening it up seems to confirm that the regulator is a separate affair that I was unable to locate on the donor car (it might have been taken already).

The alternator is a 55 amp unit, ut the autoparts place couldn't figure out how to test it, so I'm left wondering if it's a working model. Guess we'll see.

IPD's free instructions are pretty detailed on what to hook where, so I've got that covered fairly well.
