1964 Cadillac Coupe Deville, Alternator Upgrade Question

I want to upgrade my stock alternator. I was looking at a Powermaster alternator, 100 amp, 12SI. It is internally regulated. Now I know my 64 is externally regulated, my question is how do I go about installing the new alternator. Do I need to remove the external regulator completely? Also the 12SI, does that mean I may need to change the pulley? I just need guidance on what I would need to do to upgrade my alternator, and if I need to look for a specific alternator to replace the original.

I was also looking at this "Tuff Stuff Silver Bullet One Wire Alternator, 100 AMP ".
