Re: Did you change your 6v. Packard to 8v or 12v?

I'm with the crew, 8 volt is a crutch of the incompetent. In addition to all of the good advice about cable gauge (essential) have your starter motor gone over completely, not just for electrical integrity but for mechanical integrity as well. I have seen starters with bad bushings that were trying to do the right thing, but couldn't. I can make a 6 volt car crank over, start, run, charge--no problem. It's not that difficult.
