Default voltage

A Bedford Dynamo usually fits in place of a Chev one , but on a V8 it is a different matter , usually 12 volt v8 dunamo`s are a lot bigger , the other problem is that you need resistors in front of all gauges , on the chev only the fuel gauge needs one .
But usually if your cables make good contact between chassis and engine block , it should turn over fast enough to start , but you need the 4 volt ford coil and ballast resistor , so your sparks are good when starting.
