So do you have to alter the 6 volt stator? Or can you run the wassel 12 volt system with it as is?

To run the wassel 12v system the stator needs modifying (as per 60's conversion) as there won't be enough power. You need to add the main lighting coils from another 6v stator (in parallel) with the originals.
