Had some strange things living in here... -
It sounds like the alternator field is not being regulated at all, but getting full battery voltage all the time. If your new regulator has a part number you might be able to find a wiring diagram for it online. I would personally ditch the mechanical one for solid state in a heartbeat, but I'm a little biased. Don't run the car until this is fixed or you will be buying a new battery, might already be too late. I'll run down to the shop in a minute and check what my reg looks like compared to your sketch.
