I converted my 350 to twelve volt and put it negative ground. Everything seems to be ok. Since then we have bought a Super M and a MD and they are both 12 volt positive ground. I was just wondering which is the right way.
Thanks, Adam

Adam: Either way is just fine as long as you have it wired right for the system you use. On generator systems some regulators will only work one way. Alternator systems must always be negative ground, or at least that is what I was told by a professional rebuilder.

the original generaters used positive ground but when converted to alternater they use neg ground.
so both are correct.
