Mine was a bit different since the later models used an internally regulated alternator. Something that may be of interest to you, I bought my alternator from Autozone (lifetime warranty) and IIRC, there was a new pigtail for the 3G in the box. Apprently there's an issue with the factory plug getting hot and melting so they ship the alternator with a new plug. I think in the end, since the 3G is internally regulated, you'll end up with the same arrangement I have. I have a 4ga. wire that runs from the alternator over to the solenoid on the battery side. I've got a massive slo-blow power fuse inline in lieu of the factory fuseable link.
I read a couple of articles on the swap and took the best ideas from each article and incorporated them into my project. The wiring was a piece of cake. The real pain in the ass for me was clearancing the lower bracket so the alternator would fit.
