Not sure what diagram you're looking at, but hooking the alternator directly to the ignition switch will cause some mayhem. Specifically, it will start and charge fine, but when you turn off the key the engine will still run. The ign. terminal at the alternator needs the indicator bulb in the circuit to function properly.
