^^^ Fried? Check the newer alt. I bet it's fried or a connection is bad. Make sure it has ground (doubt it doesn't) and make sure you put the lead to the battery back on tight.

I still bet it's a connection, the battery will keep the ignition system going for a few miles, or longer depending on the battery, but once the car is running it gets all its power from the alternator. The alternator isn't always putting out full power either, when it sees the battery voltage going down it turns on and puts out the full charge. I have a bad connection between my alternator and the battery in my old car and it caused the same problem you are having. It died when stopped but there was enough current to jump the poor connection and charge the battery above 2k rpm.
