14 GA or 16 GA Fusible Link?
According to page 8-109 of the Plymouth 1965 Service Technical Manual the hot wire from the alternator to the bulk head connector is labeled R6, is black, and is 12 gauge.
However, I recently installed a new under-hood wiring harness I purchased online and it's hard to tell what gauge wire was used in that spot (the wire is black anyway). The other factor is: I am sure the installed alternator is not the factory installed alternator and may now have an amp output greater than the original factory rating. So now it's going back to a kind of guessing game.
