You need to make sure the socket on the alternator plug isn't spread out so far it won't engage the blade on the alternator. If that's good, move on to grounds. You need a good clean path to ground from the alternator. If its powder coated or the block is painted where the mounting points are, clean them off. Or you can bolt a cable to the alternator directly to frame. What size is your charge cable and where is it ran to?
