I am dumb. And need help wiring alternator.

I made the epic mistake of assuming I would remember how stuff goes back together...

Does the mid-leg terminal on Neg battery terminal connect to black post on alternator?

I assume so, but just wanted to check!

That terminal connects to the bottom screw on the voltage regulator (on the fender apron) and the end connects to a bolt on the block.

Gotcha. What goes on that black terminal on alternator then?

This was my pic prior to disassembly, doesn’t look like anything was on Black terminal...

Your before picture is correct, the alternator is grounded through the case and bolts to the engine block.

By any chance, do you have a picture of the other end of the connector for the alternator, that goes into the harness?

I don’t. I left that all attached and wrapped it back and covered for painting front part of engine bay. I can get a pic of you need one?

If it isn't too much trouble, yes I could use some shots of the entire harness, on both ends where possible...My harness is crap, at best..

No worries man. I already have it put back together, but I am happy to shoot some pics when I head out to the shop later this week!
