I understand. However, the only thing that would cause this is the voltage regulator that doesn't turn off the magnetic field and the voltage grows to large. Even though I have seen this happen, it normally causes things to melt like the wiring and will even damage the PCM where the regulator is.
So if you don't have melted wiring then I suspect you will be fine.
If you want to, install the alternator and then put a meter on the battery when you start the engine. If it gets over 15 volts, shut the vehicle off and we can check the PCM.
Here is how this system works if you would like to read about it.
