The heater fan runs smooth and quiet but you can stop the blade by just touching the blade. Not very strong. Steve...It's time for a new motor...They're a little pricier than 12 volt, but easy to get...

I'm calling my stock broker and have him change all my investments to "chevyofthe40s" and "The Filling Station".
I figure about the time I get everything 6volts in good shape I'll have a buyer that wants the car if I'll change it over to 12volts..grin
Charlie are you listening?...

That's true.Just a bad idea I guess. I'll stick with 6 volts.  Steve ..I would stick with 6 volt......If your heater fan don't spin fast enough for you, hook up some bicycles pedals to it and then you can also benefit from the exercise....or invest in a Hamster in a cage wheel (if you want to be Green)...ED
I was only wrong one time in my life so far. But that time I was right, and only thought I was wrong....ED

I think I will have to get some of the thicker battery cables for my 37,it has been converted to 12 volts but bigger is always better.

The 12 V cables are about half the size of 6 V cables. That is because they carry only 1/2 the amps.

I would imagine you now have extra current for the coil...

Yes better current but the significant consequence is higher voltage at the coil and therefore hotter spark.
