change out the generator - it's licensed in the normal category so I
don't think I can go the alternator route (i.e. no approved
alternators
for this application).

Getting a one-time STC for something like this is usually not too much
trouble. In fact, it would probably be pretty easy to get something
that already has an STC on something else to be approved.
Hmm, how many normal-category aircraft are certified with an M14 in
them? I was going to suggest that you start with the B&C but given
just how much the FAA hates Bill Bainbridge, I bet you would have a
hard time getting a one-time approval to retrofit with that.
Still, it is worthwhile to talk to the engineering guys at the local
FSDO. Occasionally you find someone who has a clue and would be
willing to work with you. After all, alternators are not something new
to the FAA.
