NEP1, I don't care how big a cable, how many amp hour battery or how many times you rebuild the starter and how tip top the generator/ regulator setup is (and you always qualify about useing the lights,which I can do with my Delco modified 12v DC) if the 6 volt system was good you wouldn't have to qualify. A M&W kit was an over the counter product. No one is trying to MASK problems by converting to 12 V we are SOLVING them. A stock DC Case's starting was marginal with everything in perfect condition and towing it around at -20 because it wouldn't grunt at 6 V is not my idea of quality time, but the manure needed to be spread nevertheless. The others are right on point, way increased starting capacity, way more reliable, lower rpm charging, ideal for low rpm tractor engines incidently. If you are willing to sacrifice these obvious advantages to stay obsolete 6V , by all means do so, But for 47 years I have been solving customers problems in a Modern tractor shop and the advent of alternators has made my job easier and made me many happy customers, My job is solving problems, not MASKING them by repairing (woefully inadequate by modern standards) generators/ regulators. If someone is insistent on stock parts I am happy to oblige them as long as the money is green, but for those who want the best--------------- Its not even really a debate, even Fixerupper understands the problem !! mEl
