"Does anyone out there have on

"Does anyone out there have one of these early to mid seventies 165 inline sixes that has an un-molested Mercruiser wiring harness on it. I need some one who can just take a look at a few things on the engine and then answer a few questions. I need you to make sure that the electrical system does not have a ballast resistor or external voltage regulator.

Thanks,
Eric <><"
 
The wiring diag I have for the

The wiring diag I have for the 165 shows a 2 wire alternator; no external reg.

It also shows a white ballast wire running from pin 9 of the engine plug to the + terminal of the coil. There is no separate visible ballast resistor.

Does that help?
