Howdy, Boys: I have one Super A with GM alternator. It was that way when I bought it. It is wired using a 3-wire set-up like Bob's diagram. It does not have a diode nor a light bulb. It seems to charge okay, but I have to disconnect the battery to keep it from draining down. Plus, the battery keeps getting acid on top, and I have to wipe it off all the time to keep it from ruining the paint. I'm thinking of going to the one-wire set-up. Would the alternator be the same one as I have now? I tried temporarily re-wiring it with one wire and it did not seem to charge at all. This situation makes me want to drink some liquor... mike
