The alternators on these things don't work the same as a fixed magnet alternator. The stator should never put out 20V if the regulator is working. The rectifier output goes directly to the battery AND to the regulator as that is the voltage being monitored. The regulator then adjusts the voltage down the white to the rotor, to get the desired voltage out the stator.

From this schematic it looks like you'll need to use a different regulator as the rotor black and igniton black shouldn't be on the same terminal. Check out this thread on Deuces Wild.
