My 1947 pontiac 6 cyl/ 6 volts is a 100% stock. Starting the car sometimes is hard and drain the 6 volts batt. Is there a way to install a 12 volts batt. just for the starter only without affecting the rest of the electrical system?. I also have a one wire 6 volts alternator which I think will help the charging better than the generator. I need some imput as of how to install it. Thanks

Years ago there was a 6-12 battery just for that purpus start on 12 then return to 6 not sure if you can still find
them . But the real reason it's not starting with 6volts is your battery cables must be 1 or 2 gage a lot of power is lost with the modern skiny cables.If yor battery is strong ,check the starter draw .starter may need a freshening up
AND you allso need a cable from the frame to the engine,Been there a million times .goodluck"OLDSCHOOL"
