A magneto is something completely different than a alternator and generator. the magneto makes the spark for the spark plug. alternators are used(I believe) to update the tractor to todays batterys and part selections. It's alot easier to find parts for a 12 volt system at a car junk yard than it is for a 6 v. I like to stick with the 6v. Theyre basically the same. Something charges something else and it all works happily. if you already have 12v it'll work fine but 6v is original. it's more to your taste. if you know where you can get a generator and know a shop thatll work on em go for it. If you do switch it switch the bulbs to 6v or theyll be dim and thats sbout all you have to switch well and get a 6v battery
