Thanks, that's what I wanted to know. I'm not sure I'm ready to put 12V on it, but I've got a resistor that'll give it about 8 or 9 and I think I'll try that for a while. I don't want to swap in a 12 volt motor because the whole point of this is to blow more air through the heater box than it was designed for, so I can get some decent heat in the cab. If a 6V motor can survive on 12V, and blow twice as hard as a 12V motor on 12V, that's what I want.
