Biggest issue is the ammeter. You will have to run suitable gauge wire to put the ammeter in series between the bat connection at solenoid and the bat connection at regulator. The heavy gauge wire does come under the dash but not all the way to gauge. You can try and find the proper splices or maybe use an alternative such as the headlight switch or fuse block as pickup places since they are the same wires. You should be able to use the Autolite regulator but there will be a change in that bat wire. The circuit is essentially the same minus the heavy gauge wire to ammeter and now unused small wires for idiot light. Just do a careful study of the wiring diagram. Fortunately both are laid out side by side so you can compare solid vs dotted lines to see what needs to change or where you might conveniently pick up the same wire in the open instead of a splice.
