Sam..... ....hook the 1-wire 12 volt alternators output to any convient battery connection, most use the starter solenoid battery stud. But there is more to it than that, and you should know ALL the consequences. BE AWARE OF differences between the square OEM 6 volt frontmount ignition coil that absolutely requires the use of the "infamous ballast resistor" mounted on backside of dashpanel and the more conventional roundcan coil sidemount distributor ignition system. I'm not a "fan" of the deceptively simple Delco 10-SI 1-wire alternator conversion BECAUSE ya haffta jazz that cold engine at start-up to over 1800 rpms for the 1-wire alternator to started generating 12 volts. I much prefer the 3-wire scheme Delco 10-SI with external excitation like GM does it with an idiot light, BECAUSE it starts charging at about 500 rpms. Remember, your N-Engine is supposta idle at 400 rpms and has a max 2200 rpms. And before you convert to 12 volts, you really need to search the N-Board archives and read about all the 12 volt conversion problems before its too late. Most 12 volt conversion problems are the result of the "electrically challenged" attempting to out-engineer the electrically knowledgeable that have done it successfully. You'll also find all kinds of "links" to ennny 12 volt conversion you want. I'm a 12 volt advocate for the right reasons. That said, I haven't found the right reason to convert my eazy starting OEM 6 volt 52 8N to 12 volts. And I know HOW to do it the right way. Remember the 6 volt mantra: "keep'em clean, bright, and tight"..... ...respectfully, Dell
