Talk to your local Exide battery dealer. they still manufacture that voltage battery.

Unless you are doing something very different, I suggest you troubleshoot your electrical system first.

 

Find a Tractor Supply Company store, I bought one there a few years ago for a 53 Ford truck I had.

 

There is nothing an 8 volt system can do that a 6 volt can't do, except screw up your electrical system. Treat the cause, not the symtoms...........

I did this with a truck years ago.
Easy, economical way is to go to a battery rebuilder and have them build one for you.
I got mine in Pasadena, don't remember from whom. Worked just super, I used everything on the truck, incl. the starter--it only lasted about 5 years. Just don't grind it, besides it'll spin the thing like crazy. Loved it.

You really don't need to go down the 8v road.. I had great sucess with an Optima 6v battery in a 1931 Ford... at 9 years of age it still spun the engine over fast.

Dad's A has a 8v battery; Other than burn out bulbs it doesn't do anything better than mine.
