The new alternator with new internal regulator works. I'm guessing my problem began due to a loose connection on the amp gauge. With it off it will destroy the alternator's internal regulator.

The Roush 427R does in fact have a Chevy type Powermaster 17294. It's a 105 amp alternator running through the 50 amp gauge. The alternator should never need to go all out given the equipment on the car, but if you have discharged battery the situation might not be good. The length of 10 gauge wire that runs all over the place probably isn't the best either.
