Hi everyone. I want to convert my 1951 ford 8N
side mount distributor tractor to 12 volt charging
system. I am interested in this conversion kit on
ebay. I will post link below. do I have to excite
that alternator or just the 1 wire red will
charge. meaning for the alternator hook up do i
have to do a keyed power source with a trouble
light then to the alternator and then on the other
side of that wire from the alternator install a
jumper wire to the thick red battery charging
terminal on the alternator that leads back to the
battery? is that how to hook up the alternator?
thank you.
