Upgrading old Bosch Alternator Plug & Wiring

[andre at nwmicrobrews.com (Andre Bjorkheim)]

I probably should have mentioned that I am trying to keep costs down.  I did
the 90a swap on Vomit and it worked great.  Just wanting to get the full
potential of my 65 amp before I decide I dont have enough juice to run my
stock electrical sys.
