Re: Generator to Alternator Conversion Wiring Question - 41 Packard 110

When in doubt consult an expert. When still in doubt, let them do it. Go to an auto electric shop or the guy furnishing the alternator before you have a do it yourself meltdown.
Volts are measured in parallel and amps in series. Wire accordingly.
If the alternator has an internal voltage regulator, then you don't need the stock one and why it's jumped out. If you leave them both in, they'll buck each other.
Jumping out is the same as directly connecting wires up except just use the terminals to make the connections. Path of least resistance.
