8 volt battery is usually a ban aid fix to cover other electrical problems. And a 6 volt generator won't charge an 8 V battery very well unless you also tweak the voltage regulator which is becomming a lost art. You shoulda came here first and asked about your charging system. But Nooo. You came here after you already done spent the money for a new battery. So now you're in the same boat as the rest of us who should have quit while we were ahead. I would learn how to tweak the VR. Someone here can surely teach you. I would also go through the wiring harness - all of it - remove one connector at a time and take a 1/2" plumber's fitting brush to clean and brighten both ends before reconnecting. Also remove the starter and wire brush between the starter and where it grounds to the block. If I had caught you earlier before you bought the battery I would have advised you convert it to 12 volts. 12V is more forgiving of less than perfect connections and grounds and an alternator is more trouble free than a generator. Good luck. And welcome to the board.
