The kit includes the regulator and brush holder stack with special hardware and the rectifier bridge block. All of this stuff makes for a positive ground polarity, 6-volt alternator. There are even U-tube instructions for these conversions.

It's one way to freshen up an older unit as well since it comes with bearings too.

The best way to use a 10/12si type alternator is as it was originally intended. That is 12-volt 3-wire system but most folks don't want to go 12-volt or negative ground.
