Brown wire to alternator light white wire via a fuse to battery positive and obviously big red to battery.swap the pulley off the chev alternator onto vn v6 alternator unless you have a 304 alternator lying around.you may have to rotate the rear and middle housing around to get the regulator plug to clear the block depending on where its mounted

Probably a good time to upgrade and fit a 115a remanufactured one.
