Do you still have wire connected to the external reg?
Or are you talking about the brown wire connected at the new int reg alt.
BTW,I've done the same mods as you,except the dig gauges and led courtesy lights.
M&H makes a pretty good harness!

I was talking about the brown wire that's in the two wire plug on the internal reg alt. The external reg is long gone. When I ordered the M&H harness, I asked them to wire it for the more modern internal setup and the external reg wires were omitted. IMO, M&H makes the best harnesses. I also have a 66 El Camino and a 66 Chevelle and they're both wired front to back with M&H stuff!
Anyways... after digging around in my tool box I found a 20A fuse, plugged it in place of the 30A and I'll be damned - it didn't pop! I have no clue what happened to cause the original problem but the 20A is holding. I guess I'll have to keep an eye on it. Maybe I had a bad batch of fuses? Maybe they were stamped with the wrong amperage?
