Not up to speed (pardon the pun) on the high compression, high performance, hopped-up engines back in the day. My discussion was centered on production OHV V-8s up to about 1955-56. The 6-volt ignition systems worked on these engines, but they could have starting problems; hence, the introduction of 12-volt systems after this time. Chrysler used an 8-lobe dual points distributor. I don't know if they continued this practice on their V-8s after changing to 12-volts.
