Karl, sorry to hear about your shop problems. I think that you have chosen the wrong shop to work on your plane. You are paying for the learning curve on these guys. I'm performing my annual this month, and granted, I am intimately familiar with my plane, but yours seem to be taking too long to complete.
Those guys should be making up the hoses as they go along. I've been changing the fuel hoses in the engine compartments this year, and it takes about 10 minutes to make each hose. This isn't rocket science.
The alternator is a standard off the shelf unit, its not special. It sounds as though the shop left a ground strap in place for the field circuit.
You should talk with the shops owner and get to the bottom of his problems before you get disenchanted with Skymaster ownership through check book rape.
