if there's no premade kit, then you have a couple options.
1, get the gen converted to 12v and a regulator to match, wire it up, and change the coil and lamps.. as Bob points out, the 12v gen will be like the 6v gen.. low to no charge at idle. If this suits you.. go for it.. you won't have any brackets or belts / pullies to change.
or make yer own brackets and put a cheap delco 10si alternator on there.. might have to swap pullies and belts.. and still need the new coil and lamps. go with a 3 wire setup vs a 1 wire.. on a 3 wire, loop #2 over to charge stud, and run #1 thru a 194 marker lamp to the same side of the key switch as the coil is on.. key on = lamp on. once tractor starts and is at 400 rpm or so.. lamp goes out indicating charging is occuring.. ammeter should verify this.
hook charge stud on alt to the wire that used to run to the bat terminal on the old ( un needed ) vreg.
