I'm assuming that you are using a standard GM 10SI alternator. The amp guage would go in the red wire as shown in the pic in post number two, not in the white wire. If you have an amp guage you don't need the white wire at all. The white wire controls the indicator light in cars that don't have an amp guage.
You don't need anything connected to post 1 for the alternator to work correctly.
