12v or 6v?

The flasher "tube" must be made for use with LEDs. The old style (non-electronic) flasher needs a certain amount of light-bulb "draw" in order to flash.

Classic Parts and Chevs of the 40s sell LED flashers.

Tim is correct. I have a 51, 6 volt system. I have LEDs in the rear sockets and normal lights in the front for turn signals. The normal lights produce enough resistance to work the flasher. If you use LEDs all around there is not enough resistance to work the flasher.
Enjoy
