i have a quick question regarding upgrading my alternator to a 130 amp unit from an f250 4.9. the rectifier has the 3 terminal plug on my 2.9 but the 4.9 f250 rectifier is the type with the screw on post. my question is can i just leave the 2.9 factory rectifier plug unplugged and run a new cable from the f250's post to my battery? heres pics to help:
the 3 wires in the red square are the ones in question on the 2.9
and heres the alternator i would like to use with the post for the rectifier
