Default Alternator Switchout

Disclaimer: My name is Miles and I am an electrical idiot. (group - "Hi Miles")

My alternator fried and I'm trying to install my 1-wire 100amp replacement. The old one is 4 wire, standard amp (65 I think). I'm adding pusher fans so I'm jumping up.
As is, looks like this.


I read a past thread where someone said to run the cable from the battery straight to the alternator, Remove the External Regulator and tape off the wires. Sounds easy enough, but my battery cable runs to this solenoid/relay (I wouldn't know the difference if one bit me). This is it coming up the right hand side.



From there, Big Red goes straight to the starter.
Out of the alternator, Brown, White and Black go into this Regulator. Red splits off prior to that into this plastic fastened bundle and disappears towards the front of the car into the fenderwell to who-knows-where.



What's the proper way to wire this up?
I sincerely appreciate any help you can offer.
