Check your belt tensioner. belt might be slipping at idle, or, your alt might be getting weak.

Might want to check the ground. When I did my plenum, I forgot to connect the ground wire in the back of the alt and I had a GEN light. It would go on and off. the loop was around the little bolt on the back, but it was not tightened down with the nut.

Get the alt tested, ebcause that can blow an alt.

OR it might be you forgot to put the plastic connector on it. But that would give a GEN light ALWAYS.
