thanks guys

Bill - battery has never been in the car yet so no power.

WB - the alternator is internally regulated. i installed the conversion kit shown in the pics; jumper for alt plug and block where you would normally attach to voltage regulator.

i have used all of these exact parts before on a 68 and all was well - alternator, conversion kit, starter/solenoid and harness.

i do not remember checking continuity though before hooking up battery, maybe this condition existed then too. right now i am afraid to hook up the battery until i understand what is causing the 'short'.
