Hi Rich, I agree, They would not use a resistor on a 6 volt system. Only from past experiences. My factory manual does not show it under specifications, or the wiring diagram in my 1955 factory manual So I looked at some of my old tune up manuals back to 1951 and it shows (Not Required ) under 6 volt systems for Chry.& Imperial 1951-1955. Then shows a need for a resistor for 1953-1955 with 12 volt system.( Sorenson # AL-150 ) So some where Chrysler used a 12 volt on something back to 1953.
