Good heavy cables and clean connections are the place to start, as others have suggested. Check the starter motor as well, if it is reluctant to spin. Assuming you're still on 6 volts, the problem then becomes, is it refusing to turn over because the starter simply can't overcome the compression? If the starter is good, and the cables are good, and the connections are all good, 6 volts should turn it if the engine is even close to stock. Having said all that, if it's like an M that I have, with high compression and over-bore pistons, then 6 volts is a marginal way to turn it, no matter the temperature. I went to 12 volts on that one.
