If you want to use an alternator with the same hookup as a Delco 10SI or 12SI, the 60 amp Hitachi alternators from the older Subaru Loyales - 1995 and older work great. They are much smaller and compact than the Delcos. They are also more reliable. I pick them up for $15 apiece at my local junkyard. They're cheap because they rarely go bad and thusly bad sellers. There is even a smaller one on the Subaru Justys that's still rated at 60 amps - but they're a little harder to find - especially in New York where everything rots out in ten years from road salt. I used one on my Cletrac HG with space is limited. I've got property near you - in Malone and also some woods on the Jefferson-Lewis County border. They even salt the dirts roads there in summer. I've gotten stuck behind a brine truck once or twice in the middle of August. I live in Otsego Co. - more hilly and less windy than Ogdensburg but just as cold - and I don't have a big river to play in (along with the Canuks). I'm 15 miles from Cooperstown - and the guy that founded the town originally (Judge Cooper) also went up your way and founded Gouverneur.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
