I didn't try turning the flashers on since I had voltage.
Thoughts??

On the alternator, confirm that you have the big ORANGE wire connected to the BAT terminal, the BLACK wire grounding it, the BLUE/GREEN wire to the FIELD and the WHITE/BLACK wire to the stator. Then pull the plug on the voltage regulator and jumper between the first tang that has the BLUE/GREEN wire and the third tang that has the YELLOW/RED wire; do not plug the voltage regulator plug back in to the voltage regulator. Start the car and rev no high than 1500 RPM and view the VOM's voltage at the battery. Report back.
