RE: 1979 Vette charging problem
There is one other place to look, the ground wire from the wiper switch, runs down to the bell housing, it has a large connector at the end and it should be connected to a bolt on the bellhousing, sometimes if is mistakenly connected to the starter terninal & that to will bleed of your battery voltage. Take a look to make sure that is connected correctly PG.

I did find that the draw was coming from the gree/brown wire coming from the back of the alternator (one of the wires going to the diodes). I traced it back and could not find anything wrong with it. I ran another wire that was hot when the ignition key was on and jumpered it to the alternator and everthing runs great now. I guess it just needed 12 volts....
Thanks again for the help. I really learned alot chasing the gremlins....little nasty &^%$
