I have a T O 20 1951 Ferguson tractor that I plan to convert to 12 volt negative ground. I purchase a GM 12 volt 1 wire alternator with internal regulator made specifically to connect to battery + post. The auto parts person also sold me a 12 volt coil with internal resistance. He said it would be okay to change out with the 6 volt coil. I will have to change the alternator pulley to make it match the crank and water pump pulleys. I know I will also have to fabricate an alternator mounting where the existing generator is located. I plan to change the lights later on to 12 volts. The gearshift activates the mechanical connection (solenoid) to the starter on this old tractor. I would appreciate diagram relative to the wiring installation from anyone to compare with mine (including ammeter insertion). I would appreciate comments and direction from those that have made this conversion. Bill H.
