Good post and explanation Patrick. On my 66 Corvette, the old factory engineers on Corvette Forum who worked for GM way back then have stated that what is commonly called the ammeter gage - is actually more accurately a "battery gage". It measures charge and discharge of the battery but not alternator amperage output.
