Converted. You had to change the bell housing and flywheel to add a starter. There were no tapped holes on the engine block for a generator mount and no place for a battery.

I'm leaving the starter bell housing on my 35 WC. SIL's grandpa put it on many years ago so he wouldn't have to crank it, so it will stay on there.
