[T3] 6 VDC to 12 VDC



OK, my Notch is a 1964N model, I think.
I thought it was a 1963, but have been told that it is 1964.

Here is what I want to consider:
I would like to go to a breakerless ignition system, same as I have on my '70 Bus, but the Notch is 6 VDC.
I would like to go to halogen headlights, but the Notch is still 6 VDC :-)

Who has been here before?
What are my options?
What is the best route to follow in case I must convert to 12 VDC?
Alternate source generator retro-fit, re-wind, what?

The notch has 18,000 original miles, and I guess some would call it sacrilege to alter the electrical system, but I am gonna drive this guy, and I like the electronic ignition system as to reliability and performance.

Besides, if there is ever any raised eyes at my 12 VDC, halogens, or ignition system, I can always show those raised eyes the box that will contain the original components.
