Has anyone tried the 6 volt alternator conversion kits found on ebay? They have 6 volt regulators that give you 6 volt negative ground as well as a kit that converts a GM alternator to a 6 volt positive ground. I have ordered the 6 volt regulator for the 50 Champion as I have already switched it to negative ground for other reasons and at $12.00 it's a lot cheaper than a new voltage regulator and I have a GM 10SI not being used. The only thing in the car that is polarity sensitive is the ammeter and ignition coil and that just requires the wires be switched.
The original positive ground regulator is working but the contacts seem to arc more and the ammeter jumps quite a bit more. I suspect it won't last too long. I am wondering has anyone tried to reverse polarity on one of the original regulators and if so how did it work out?
