Default DFI panel done

Check out the panel I made for an LS1 Trans Am. It goes where the heater used to go and all the wires exit out the back. It can be removed and used to run the engine stand alone like on a dyno or used in another car.

QUESTION- how can I make the alternator work on this car? It has a 4 pole connector on it, what's the simplest way to wire it up to charge the battery?

Thanks

looks good. All the alternator needs is a 12v source, any switched 12v source such as the ingnition switch.

which terminal needs the switched source? I like the older alternators, all I had to do was run a wire from terminal 2 to the main bat terminal and when it was spinning it made volts.
Glad you guys like my work. Can't wait to fire this baby up!

It's not my car, it has a modified LS1 with a FAST manifold and a throttle body that you can stick your hand in. I'll post some pictures after I get the wiring done.
