Big 3 with external voltage reg?

[sampson 10+ year member]

Hey got a 76 celica gt liftback, so naturally something that old has the external voltage regulator about 6-10 inches from the battery. There are quite a few wires going into and comming out of the regulator. How would I go about running the alternator to battery wire of the big 3, while stilling going through the voltage regulator, and not frying my electric system? I've done 2 of the 3 so wires so I'm just looking to finish it off. I can get pics if someone wants em, but its 11:30 pm, so I'll get em tomorrow. Anyway if anyone has any ideas on how this would go down, I took a quick look around this forum and didn't see anything that really fit the bill of what I was looking for. Thanks a lot guys-Sampson

If you can see where the output of the regulator is, run the alt/battery wire to where that's connected.

10-4. Just find the positive output wire that runs directly to the battery.

Heres a pic, should I just test each wire individually, and then run it off whatever one has a 12 volt charge or what? I mean if it just had like wires going into one side and then out the other side, I'd be all about it, but it just goes in and comes out the same side. I'm not trying to be stupid about this, but finding parts for this thing is next to impossible, so I dont' wannt F*** up what I got //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. Any ideas? Thanks-Sampson
