I've got 6v, 8v and 12v systems on various tractors around here and when it gets down around zero F. or lower, I've learned to start one of the 12v units first and then pull the 6 and 8v ones if I need that one....or just use a jumper cable. If you're wanting to stay away from the looks of an alternator put on a 12v generator. Another way to keep the original look is to use available 12v bulbs in the original 6v housings, like 12v backup bulbs for headlight bulbs in Case Va tractor headlight housings. Another thing that helps in starting is to keep the clutch in so you're not trying to turn the input shaft in that frozen 90wt. :-)
