Don't know about the tank heater...never heard of that one. The 12 volt conversion is easy, though. Find an alternator (Buckeye Electric has the whole set-up for about $85 UPS'd to your house; call 800-872-5561). The starter doesn't have to be messed with at all. Just pull your old voltage regulator, put in new lamps and volt meter. The only other item that you will need is the 'step down' resitor (?) to the coil. The coil and distributer needs to have 6 volt (unless you replace them as well). Only put the resitor between your 12 volt source and the coil. Its no big deal...I've done it more than a couple of times, so how hard can it be? Good luck and enjoy your M.
