Question LIGHTS AND GAUGES PULSING

Hi everybody, I have a 2000 f450 4X4, I have noticed lately that the lights and gauges are pulsing, since it is a 450 the lights are always on so I notice it every time I drive. The alternator is showing around 14 volts and it starts fine, does anyone have the same problem? could it be a voltage regulator? is the regulator inside the alternator or is it external?. any help would be appreciated. Also is it possible to put an alternator from a 1993 6.9 on a 7.3? just wondering cause I have a new one I purchased for my '93 but never put it on. Thanks for the help....Bill

Is that what it reads while its pulsing? Tried cleaning and retighening your grounds? Battery posts corroded? Couldn't hurt to wire-brush 'em down anyways.
