Sorry Rich, in the post, it says the 2 other terminals.. BUT I just done some homework, and it appears if he bought the kit from YT (which if I read correctly that is where he got it).. And it should be self exciting, so the 2 wires would not be used.

HOWEVER I've mounted a few delco's in the last couple years, and I'll tell ya, unless the alternator is set up as Self-Exciting IT WILL NOT charge.. One of the 2 posts on top is excite post, the other is supposed to be what I believe they call a "stabilization post" (tells the internal regulator what the charge status on the battery is.. or is how it was explained to me.).

I will agree that a external ground wire is USUALLY not required..

So Rich, I guess, in conclusion, we're both right.. In self exciting, you are correct.. But had it not been self exciting, the other posts would be needed.. Still is strange that those posts are not "blocked off" though, as the 1-wire I have has them blocked.
