. A 6v starter can be run with a 12v system. Just don't hang on the start switch. There's a Denso alternator that packages tighter that the hot rodders use. That's what I put in my Ferguson and probably on my Wd when I go 12v. Internal regulator of the 12v alternators allow getting rid of the regulator brick while the 12v coil with internal resistor gets rid of the external resistor block and connections. Simplifies the conversion. .

Mike, You're absolutely right. The problem with these old units is you're not sure what's in them till you tear em' down. Even if you go by the unit p/n the books aren't always right either especially when flipping to 12. That's worst. LOL! Then starts the back n' forth to the parts store. That's the main reason why I don't sell Starter and Generator parts for these old units......

| run 6v starters on 12v for many years on some things and probley still will but i change my own stuff and customer stuff when i do conversions over to 12v. now way better on starter drives housings ring gears when you have a good healty operating electrical system . 6v is fine when everything electrical needs work. i realley hate that drive trying to bash all the way to the radiator |

Mike, I know what you mean. I've broken more than one nose cone on those starters. It's worth the extra $$ to change the starter over and be safe, rather than buy more expensive nose cones which are getting kind of scarce. ------------- "Allis-Express" 19??

Mike, The 1107017 is the WC/RC Starter. The WD/WD45 Starter is "usually" 1107951. Be careful though, I've had some 951's with different components in them! Yeah, don't rely on the internet to be right. Most of the time, they ain't! LOL! Steve@B&B ------------- 39'RC, 43'WC, 48'B, 49'G, 50'WF, 65 Big 10, 67'B-110, 75'716H, 2-620's, & a Motorhead wife |

Better off to pull the starter apart.. Put the "needed" parts in a box and have the Wifey stop by and show them what you need !  ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |
