MG MGA - Alternater Question

Spent 4 hours going over everything with my new alternater, still not charging.

Totally by-passed the old regulator per the MGAGuru, still nothing

Can I check the output of the alternator by running a lead from the alternator to my multi-tester, and ground on the other lead?

The general test for charging is test the battery with a voltmeter, engine off. Then engine on. Should be about 12 volts off, about 14 on, if it's charging. If it's not there will be no difference. Maybe your charge light is not working right after the conversion?
