I agree with everyone who says direct to starter. I have done it sometimes on the Ford 861 powermaster back at the farm in Nebraska. But, make sure of the battery polarities. The Ford is positive ground, most 12v uses negative ground. Why not convert to 12v, I did on the 861 after a fuel fire burned the wiring. You will need to get a resistor to feed the coil/distributor, change lights, but the 6v starter SHOULD handle 12v just fine. Sure makes it easier to start.
