I need to check alternator connections but so far 1 hour driving under new battery and only thing I can note is the idle dropping close to 600 rpm when stopping and jumps back upto 900rpm. It doesn't happen all the time but noticed it once or twice. Probably normal.

No issues with any electrical items flickering or turning off.

I will check the voltage readings again but I hope I am good as I won't be able to do the alternator myself. If that is the case, I won't have the car up and running until beginning of August when I come back from Disney World!

Yeah that idle drop is normal. Usually happens if your at a bit higher rpms and flip neutral. Glad to hear that its working!
