I have a 1 wire Delco alternator and the necessary parts to put the tach drive on the alternator but the alternator has a built in regulator. I need a wiring diagram and/or advise on how to best modify the wiring. I will remove the old voltage regulator but need help with the rest of the wiring.

You should be ok by connecting the wire from the voltage regulator's bat terminal to the big lug on the alternator. This way it will be connected to the battery via ammeter. Remember, that you might neet to change the wire to a beefier one, since your new alternator will give more current than the old generator. You might need to reroute the wire supplying the light switch, since if i remember right it originally takes it's power from the regulator.
