2 6 volt in series = 12 volt amps same as smallest battery
2 12 volt parrelled = 12 volt amps added together
should always use same size batteries
most people recomend replacing together for max life
you can buy new battery boxes
some people have reported very good results with the Optima gel batteries
fix it up so that you have enough amps to run the preheater and crank the engine. I have 2 6volts and preheat then hold the preheater and crank the engine at the same time. Works good for me. May need to take the starter in and have it looked at as I would like a faster cranking speed

good luck
Ron
