Hi Bob
Regarding your last line, about two brush 12v conversion.
We have had exactly the set up you describe for several years, initially with no problems , then the regulator died! Since then I have had nothing but trouble, with it apparently doing in new regulators with ease. As I do long distance trials with the car, involving running all night, in all weathers, this is becoming a pain! My question is, will fitting a resistor of 4.8 ohm in the field coil wire to the regulator fix this problem, or does it need the dynamo rewinding? My next trial is at Easter, so a rewind isnt an option before then.
All the best
