I am considering switching from 6 to 12 volt in my 1961 chevy 4x4 I am putting in a 350 and thought switching might be nice, but I'm not sure if it is really necessary. What are the avantages and the dis advantages to the 12 over the 6 volt.

Somebody will correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't ANY post-'55 GM vehicle be 12v from the factory?
