 They pulse between bright and 
dim at a rate of about 60-80  cycles per minute.   Driving down the road if 
I 
load up the  alternator by switching on the high beams it made it stop 
pulsing, 
but only  temporarily.  Sitting in the driveway it was pulsing and then 
when the  
powerglide is selected into drive- it would stop pulsing, but only  
temporarily.  
Comes back within a few seconds.

Normally that is the Voltage regulator causing that...  The  Alt.  turns

So, Jim - Got any friends? I would swap out the alternator with a friends  
"known-good" unit. At least that is another "free" data point. Then swap out 
the  regulator with a friends. If none of these changes clears it up, you 
might truly  have a wiring problem.
