51 generator rebuild

It took awhile but I found that the generator is not charging. There is a local shop here in Grass Valley Calif. that say they can rebuild it, or should I farm it out to Packard supplier. I have not gotten a price yet. Maybe this is a good time to think about converting to a 12 volt alternator? There is a new voltage regulator on the firewall. If it was 12 volt neg ground could I install electric ignition? What are the pro, and con of this path?
