[V8Vairs] Adapting the stock engine wiring harness

I have a new 1965 Corsa engine harness that I want to adapt to my V8 vair.
The area I'm pondering at the moment is the replacement of the stock
external regulated alternator with my new internally regulated alternator.
Corvair Underground sells a bolt in dummy regulator set-up for this purpose,
but I'll be unwrapping most of the harness anyway and thought I'd seek some
advice on re-wiring it.
 
>From the junction on the frame rail near the battery, the wiring diagram
shows a 20 guage red wire into the regulator along with a 20 guage brown
wire coming from the main harness connector.  The other two wires leaving
the regulator form the two wire lead that attaches to the alternator.  Can
anyone advise me on how to re-connect these wires to eliminate the regulator
portion of the harness?
