farmallhal...I tend to agree with your thoughts and comments...however....
I realize that this is the RED board and my comments are applicable to Ford, but are offed as food for thought and discussion.
My '63 FORD 4000...a gasser...was originally a 6 volt tractor. I bought it 2nd or 3rd hand many years ago and it was a 12 volt tractor. At the time of purchase, I did not know it had been a 6 volt unit.
I was talking with an acquaintance of mine one day about the tractor and he said that he had owned the tractor at one time and had converted it by using a 12volt GENERATOR and 12volt STARTER off the same model DIESEL tractor. In the ensuing years (probably 23-25 years) I've had to replace starter and...I think, also...the generator. No problem....look up 63 Ford 4000 DIESEL for those part numbers.
QUESTION: Could something like this work for the IH/Farmalls as well??
I've learned a lot on this board...have a 46 Farmall A that will get "restored" someday now that I'm retired!!

I have tuned it up, overhauled the carburetor, installed a borrowed, rebuilt magneto, installed a new Power-Trol, patched the radiator, installed new front wheels a
