swapped motor, now alternator not charging battery? starter not working?

Hey guys. I swapped the motor out in my 95 with one from a 97. 2.2
Motor runs great, but the alternator is not charging the battery and for the life of me I can't figure out why the starter doesn't work properly any way I wire it. Both items were perfectly functional before. Help please? What to check? What wires go to the starter? What wire charges battery?

did you reconnect the alt to starter wire?
