Unlike the Delco Alternator, the Lucas Alternator only has +12V outputs (the 3/8" spade connectors) plus the 1/4" connector for the ignition light. The outputs are identical.
Every JH wiring harness I've seen is slightly different, so I couldn't tell you exactly which wire goes where. However, I assume you're replacing another Lucas alternator? If so, it doesn't matter if you flip-flop the 3/8" terminals.
Of special note...The Delco Alternator has 3/8" ground connector. If you are replacing a Delco Alternator with a Lucas unit YOU WILL BLOW SOMETHING UP if you attach the GND wire to the +12V terminal!
Just remember the story about the "Lucas Smoke" on Ebay...
