Greetings. I'm sorry I haven't searched archives yet on this, but I'm about to purchase a '68 car with the generator system rather than an alternator. The system is presently working, but I would like to know how much of a project I'll be in for if I want to convert this car to an alternator setup, and while I'm at it, I wondered if there are any recomended non-volvo conversions which people have done, such as the popular GM alternator (or GM-type) that many do on older cars to decrease replacement costs and increase available amperage.
Thanks for any advice,
-Brian
