5/8 ton Shop Shark 5 Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 163 glendale, az	I cannot locally locate a 6 volt ignition switch for my 2nd series '47 chevy truck. I am keeping the 6 volt system with the floor start and was curious if using a 12 volt switch will harm anything? After all i am just completing a circuit right?
