Re: 8 volt batteries?

The only guy I knew who used 8 volt batteries was an old time used car dealer. You need to put a ballast resistor to protect lights, but no used car dealer would ever think about that so all the lights in his cars were blown out.

If you want to overspin the starter then the 6-12 is an option. Old timers used those too, but I will refrain from names and stories in the absence of a cocktail party.
