Click on "Articles" under "Research & Info" on the left side of this web page. If you look down the list of topics, you will find one devoted to "Changing from 6 to 12 Volts". The info you need will be there. You don't need a warning light with an alternator, but you should use a resistor and diode if you don't use the light. As another said, you can use a single wire alternator and not need either a resistor or warning light. The disadvantage to single wire systems is that they usually need more RPM to start charging. With an older tractor, RPM is something that just isn't there.

The only thing reusable with a 12 volt system is the starter and ammeter. You need to add a resistor to your coil, if you are using battery ignition.
