[Spridgets] Negative ground conversion questions

Hi all-

I'm still trying to sort out my charging and tachometer problems, and from
what I have gathered and read, I think at one time my '66 had both pos and
neg earth done to it.

For those keeping score, I have it running/put together by the book with
positive earth.

I found wires stripped on the white tach wiring (but not cut), and the
innards of the tach seem stock.

The generator does not match anything else, so origin unknown.  I do know it
has good brushes.

2 questions-and I read Frank's conversion tips already (thanks Frank)

Is there a mod to the regulator that needs to be done when switching
polarity that I have not found?

How do I flash the generator to Pos earth to eliminate that part of it?

Thanks
Chris

66 MKIII
