Alternator wiring

I just got a 1990 Dixon ztr428 with no motor on it. I put a 12.5 hp briggs and stratton motor on it and it runs great. The only issue I have is that the old motor had a 1 wire alternator wire that went to the solenoid on the battery side, well the problem is my new motor has a 2 wire alternator system and they both have power coming from them when the mower is running. My question is where do I connect the wires to? Do I need more parts so I don't overcharge the battery?

Wiring needs to go to a regulator, best for you to post up the B&S engine numbers, you may have a dual circuit alternator.
