Thanks for the advice! It was the alternator. It was an externally regulated alternator with no external regulator. Im guessing whoever swapped the 350 into it converted it to an internally regulated unit and when it died, the guy who sold it to me bought the original part which was an externally regulated unit. I threw a one wire unit on it and it runs great, no more dead battery!
