Yes had to swap old pulley on there. Here's what i don't get though, i have tried 2 supposedly good v-regulators and this new alternator all with the same results. Voltage just drops when loaded. I did try another battery, i got 14v right after starting, but in a few minutes the voltages tanked. Are there any relays that would isolate the load of accessories from the alternator? I guess i don't see how it could put out all the amperage needed but still have such low voltage.

The voltage regulator is bad, buy a new one

Ross, i didn't make this clear but i tried that with the original alternator. So i have one voltage regulator that has run all of 20 mins and another that was on the rebuilt alternator. Neither v-reg in either alternator makes any appreciable power nor responds to load. Am i dealing with all bad parts here? Possible, but i find it hard to believe all the new parts i received are bad. Am i looking at a bad ground or something goofy like that?

If it tested only 13 v on the bench I can only conclude a bad regulator.
What happens if you disable the new lights you installed??
