Why are you going to the 8-volt battery? Normally any starting problems are fixed with the right thickness cables and clean connections. If you've got 0 gauge cables, everything's clean, and you still have problems, the starter's probably going bad and an 8-volt battery will only get you a little more time before the starter goes completely.
A starter in good condition will take 12 Volts as long as you don't sit there and crank and crank and crank until it's smoking hot. Is this a souped up pulling engine you're trying to start? Maybe a 12 Volt conversion would be in order. An alternator and 12 Volt battery won't be much more than an 8 volt battery.
