Your tractor n your choice n budget, but heres my approach:

Getting a used or rebuilt generator (versus convertign to alternator) could save time and wiring modifications plus keep her ORIGINAL......... But then you gotta hope the Voltage Regulator or Cutout Relay is also okay cuz a rebuilt Genny PLUS a new VR/Relay may get pricey as compared to an alternator. NOTE the GM 10 SI 3 wire is readily available and cheap as compared to a One Wire although the one wire is easier to wire up.

One of the most expensive components of a starter is the armature, Id shop around for a good used unit and compare it with what a rebuild shop will charge to fix yours......

Often an old rotten radiator may be patched but will spring a new leak later. Same as above Id shop salvage dealers and compare it to the price of a refurbished unit.

Its just hard to say sittin here and unaware of your budget and the availability of salvage dealers and rebuild shops in your area. Still if you spend a few more bucks now n do it right (rebuild versus salvage) you may save time n money n aggravation in the long run, that would be my approach.
