If you are still working on this, I hope you are. You might want to stay with a wye winding. Wye wound transformers are able to put out higher amp. Delta wound transformers put out higher voltages.

You might see, with hand spinning the alternator, putting some of the leads in series and parallel what kind of VA you can get. Or some way to keep it spinning at a steady rate.

The wire looks like it is 16 solid.
