Kind of hard to see what is going on here. Basically, you want B+ to go the battery + terminal, D + to be connected to the field charging circuit (typically the "blue" wire) and the body of the alternator to be grounded to the body of the alternator. What circuit is the black wire connected to? And, where does the second blue wire connect?

B+ is going to battery +
D+ blue wire #1 is coming from regulator
D+ blue wire #2 going past fire wall to light I presume
Black wire from regulator
Brown wire #1 from regulator
Brown wire #2 ground to block

Oh. Didn't think of the fact that you have an external voltage regulator. Yes, it looks right, other than the comments made by others about the condition of the wires.
Great, thanks Chris. I'll clean up the wires and make it look pretty as well.

The Nylock nut on the blue wires isn’t helping you - looks like the stud is too short to engage the nylon locking portion. May need a standard nut and blue thread lock if you can’t remove some of the height in the stack
