Hi David....I find alternators to be more reliable. Generators need a voltage regulator and the regulator uses points, not solid state type electronics. Points are just far less reliable than a modern electronic regulator that is built into the alt.
I changed from a generator to a alt (on a Super A) and it was the best thing I did on that tractor. It's started perfect ever since but when it had the generator, I always had to hold my breath and hope (and I was often disappointed!).
