I'm preparing to get the engine ready to test and would like information on what brand and type of battery is the best to use. I'm not converting to 12 volt yet, but keeping the 6 volt system for now. I've heard that Optima is a good brand and seems to last forever. What are your opinions of differing brands and types. I also heard that some classic car enthusiasts use 8 volt batteries in their 6 volt systems without any bad effects on their electrical systems. What would you know about that, also? Thanks for any information you might be able to provide.
