Ok, I just got home and checked my Haynes manual. It refers to an internal voltage regulator inside of the alternator - but makes no mention of any fusable link. The wiring schematic shows none either, and seems to indicate that the alternator is wired directly to the battery. WELL in the SPI engine it goes straight to the battery, in the DOHC it goes to the starter first.

So do we need a fuse or not? I am interested in finding out because I just did this mod on the weekend, and I don't want any fires!!! I would be happy to add an inline fuse for safety - just need to know what rating it would need.
