Ok. after all the articles on a 3 g alt swap and capping off the two black/orange 10 gauges wires. Where do these 2 wires go?? I have looked for a chassis wiring diagram and it looks like 1 goes to the starter solenoid and 1 goes to a circiut breaker. Where is the circuit breaker?? I am moving the battery to the back at the same time and want to free up some space on the battery side of the starter solenoid. I want to cut these 2 wires off from the other end and was hoping im right about where they end up.

Check out the Charge/Power Distribution diagram toward the bottom of the page for the 88 alternator wiring.
