My M and 2 8N's have all been converted and I will never, ever go back to 6 volt. In the first place when done right it's a maintenance free system. You run it until something fails. In the case of a car well over 100,000 miles most of the time. Plus anyone can jump it without damaging the system. There is a lot to be said about compatibility. I spent close to 300 bucks on a new battery charger last year, 12 volt only. For basically the same charger with the 6 volt setting they wanted another hundred bucks. Almost all VR's are being built in the land of almost right and it's common anymore for a guy to have to get 3 or 4 to get one that works. Now I hear all the complaints about NAPA. I've been using them exclusively for all of my electrical needs for almost 20 years. I've had one problem and they took care of it right away. But I only buy the premium line. Heck I got 6 years out of a couple of trolling motor batteries from them and I'll admit I didn't take very good care of them.
If it's a working tractor I'd stay with 12 volt. Just because it came 6 volt doesn't mean it can't be 12 providing the installation is done right.
