need help with installing FD alt into SA
i know installing an FD alt into an SA is differnt than into a FB.all the info i can find is for the FB swap. the SA alt is externally regulated and i dont know what i need to do to get this alt to work. i have the plug for the FD alt, so now all i need to do is wire it up. id like to do this right rather than send my money straight down crapper
any help is greatly appreciated. pics or diagrams are a +++

here is a diagram of how my system was. Have done the swop to s5 alt and it works well. dash light works, and battery holds charge
here is a picture of my s5 alt plug. yellow wire is S terminal. White wire is L terminal. The S terminal i connected a fuse to and wired it up to a constant power source. The white wire i connected to my white wire (1) in the diagram above - the one which eventually goes to the white/black in the bottom right of the mega black plug.
