You might want to go with a larger gauge(numerically smaller) wire for your battery cables, like zero gauge. This'll give the starter more amps to work with. A 6V system has to make twice the amps of a 12V system to do the same amount of work. By using bigger battery cables, you can get more amps to the starter and the rest of the electricals.

Make sure all of your terminals are shiny-clean, too. Its amazing how just a little dirt can inhibit good electrical flow.
