Default Bob Drake 36 headlight conversion

Anybody tried this conversion? I really want to keep the original lens' in my 36.
I have a 12 volt conversion and I can run H4 halogens in the original type reflectors that are adapted for H4's. The problem is only the "high beam" filament is properly aligned in the reflector. The low beam filament produces very difuse light thru the lens. Effectively, the high beam filament produces about as much light as you'd expect from a low beam.

I've tried just about every other option including original lens' resilvered, and "super bright" bulbs. Still, I'm not happy with the amount of light emitted.

Just thought I'd ask before spending another $135 on a trial.
