    Club alternator now wired in and charging. Connect the B+ of the alternator so that it will connect to the three wire pole of the amp meter. Run a wire from the D+ of the  alternator and connect to a standard bulb warning 2 – 5w lamp in parallel with a resistor (I used a 10 watt 30 ohm wire wound aluminium body resistor from amazon) attach this to the ignition switch. I scraped and filed the alternator mounting to the engine to ensure there is ability to ground through the engine. The above is in a french car, I am no electrician but it all works now.
