Default NEW starting problem

Finally got the 40 to start after replacing starter so w/a correct one. Generator started to motor (orig problem I think). Replaced volt regulator as someone suggested. Now when I connect battery generator still wants to "motor'. Bad generator??
It's a 48 block with an offset gen mount modified to use the orig hold down nut.
If it is the gen, which one do I order??
Any fix for this gen??
I don't want to go to an alternator because of the period correctness of the car.


Thanks in advance .
