That would be the best way of doing it, bolt in a bridge rectifier in the place of the selenium one but you will only need two wires, as the original was only half wave.coaster wrote:JIMS that posted on here a few months back with pics of an S2 rectier he'd uprated with a silicon full wave rectifier. It's for use with the 12volt rewire on the stator but it points the way as to what's possible
