The problem is, there are different strategies on wiring rear batteries, and the disconnect if used. "Where does" your main power feed come off? You don't really see it..........that I understand......in your diagram
Also be aware that depending on what you have for wiring changes, there are some voltage drop problems built into these cars, you are already addressing part of them with the ammeter bypass.
So far as the VR, the major issues are (referencing original wiring......) The bulkhead connector, ammeter, rare, but sometimes the welded splice connection in the dash black ammeter wiring, the ammeter, the ignition switch connector, and the switch itself.
The VR wherever it is MUST be within a tenth of a volt or so "at ground" with the battery
The VR power (sensing / ignition) wire must ALSO be within a tenth or two or three of "same as battery.
In the original wiring of these girls, THAT is almost always a problem. There was 1.5 or a little more drop in my original wiring, meaning the battery charged at........... 14V (the regulator) PLUS the 1.5V drop,.......... so the battery charged at 15.5!!!
