so long as you have not got things like electronic clocks or polarity dependant accessories, ie radio
you can change the polarity quiet easily.

first of all remove the dynamo and its regulator box. connect both the 2 thick brown cables together and then connect the 2 small wires together the ones that's connected to lamp + lt.

once you have fitted your alternator , you can use the 2 wires that that's on your dynamo to connect the alternator up. connect your battery with the negative to earth. you will need new ends on the battery cables though.

everything now should work.
if you have an amp meter then you will need to change the connections on the back over to show your charging not discharging.
