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".

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.
