Im NOT a fan of butchered up NON Original conversions, ESPECIALLY on a smaller tractors that can start run n perfrom just fine even at cold temps, but that being said heres the plus n minus:
DISADVANTAGES:
Lowers value as far as original minded collectors are concerned or authentic tractor shows
Looks weird
May be a hassle when you try n replace with other original parts
If the ground has been reversed one has to be careful about polarity issues n jumping etc
Did I mention its NOT original n butchered lol
ADVANATGES:
Usually starts better
Usually charges better n faster n even at slower idle speeds once alternator is excited
Ignition may perform better
If it converted to neg ground more people are familiar with that when it comes to jumping etc
HOWEVER Its your tractor n your choice n no one elses business as fer as Im concerned so go with it n have a nice day
Cost is minimal,,,If you use a GM 10 SI alternator they are cheap reliable n readily available......Either a ballast resistor or a new 12 volt coil is cheap n easy if you swap out a mag to a distrtibutor and if you use a mag NO CHANGES NECESSARY
