I picked up a Painless Wiring Alternator Kit.
That junction box is full full now.

Since I'm not using the evap canister, I decide to replace it with a vacuum canister instead of the factory ball canister.
This way the fender will look cleaner without the canister bolted to it. I space out the vac can bracket and figure out how to install it (since I want it in the same location as the evap can).
There's nothing close to bolt it to, so I figure out a bracket to bolt to the bracket. I'm probably going to come up with a better solution than this, but for now I'm going with it.
Not bad. When someone looks, at first glance it'll look factory.

Even with the fusible link I'd still put one up by the relay. I've seem too many of those burnt/melted connectors cause GM bean counters removed that fuse in the mid '70's. Adding this to both Jr.'s & my Montes.
Just out of curiosity, why aren't you using the EVAP canister to provide vent for gas tank, and carb bowls if equipped?
I'm using a simple tank vent at the rear coupled with a "roll over" valve
