Converting Generator to Altenator system

Is it possible (mounting considerations aside) to use a basic 12 volt AC Delco Altenator on the electrical system of a 12 volt JD 60? I notice that there is only one wire coming from the NEGATIVE pole of the battery, thgrough the ammeter and to the voltage regulator mounted on the current generator. A wire also goes from the same post on the regulator back to the ignition switch (seems weird to me but it works). I assume that these wires can be attached to the "Battery" post on the altenator but what do the other two terminals (titled simply "1" & "2") attche to? Also, I have heard that there may be some modification needed to the coil? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I have already started ripping things apart. Maybe there is some publication explaining all of this but I know it can be done. THANKS!
