if i cut the white/black wire and connect it to another wire with a 1/4female will that work instead of doing the Y splitter?
Yes.
The Y like Jrichker does is for convenience [in the event of reverting back to a stock alternator].
Doing a Y is just as easy, unless one is using solderless connections.
If you use a solderless connector on the cut stator wire and your new jumper wire (instead of soldering the jumper wire to the stator wire), you could put a complimentary connector on the rectifier-side stator-remnant. That way, if you need to reconnect the OEM stator circuit back together, you can just plug the two connectors together.
Need some help!Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here.
If one is using a pigtail off a 3G alternator with the self-contained stator wire (Red Arrow), wouldn't one then just eliminate the SMALLEST wire from off the car's rectifier plug wiring harness ??
Which wire is the exite wire in my set up ?Katmandu, you should have been fine doing the looping. The only non-looped regulator wire is the excite wire (seeing 12 volts through a resistance circuit).
Are you sure the alternator is good?

Wear do the white wires (in both) in the car's harness attach to at the other end (opposite the alternator that is) ?
So your saying it goes from the rectifier harness back through the voltage regulator harness ?Lt Green/red.
The white stator wires just makes a big loop from the rec to the reg (or reg to stator terminal). There is no 'other end' to it.
So is the Excite wire the YELLOW wire then ??Katmandu, you should have been fine doing the looping. The only non-looped regulator wire is the excite wire (seeing 12 volts through a resistance circuit).

Well, I got it to work finally!You can run the yellow wire directly to the alternator output, but that by passes the fuse link.
