If you are looking at it from a purists viewpoint a conversion would be a travesty but for those who work with their tractors and need reliable starting in the dead of winter and a reliable lighting system and a system with reserve capable of running accesories with heavy amperage draws and turning engines that have been updated with overbore kits it's a no brainer.
