I used an 8 volt in both my M and my H for years. However I converted them over to 12 about 3 years back. Main reason is that I had lots of trouble with the regulator keeping the battery charged. Also the batteries were getting expensive and hard to get.

It keeps everything pretty much the same on your tractor but you still have a little extra starting boost when you need it.
