Purdy, I'm interested in knowing what is required to bring the 'A' generator up to this capability.
The armature and field coils will need to be changed and a cooler band will be needed.

If you have the 2010 Brattons catalog, look on page 65 , upper center column and you will see the new 60 amp armature. The part number is 15002 and the price is $75.00 . The field coils are listed on page 68 . The Fun Projects voltage regulator WON'T work with the 60 amp set up. The Peterson band style regulator will probably work but the connections are CLOSE. You could call Brattons info number for their recommendations. The info number is (301) 829-9880. Good luck.
