    Here's the new alternator installed, now if someone would just respond to my other post about the wiring so that it would actually charge my battery.

    The new alternator being for an A/C crar shouldn't mean anything other than it may be a higher amperage output alternator...having an extra post on the alternator for something shouldn't matter as long as you have the original 3 hooked back up correctly.
    If the new alternator is not charging the battery I would be looking at the voltage regulator and battery itself.

    Do you have a picture of the voltage regulator so I'll know what to look for? Also how could I test to see if it is working?
