Hi Phil,
An 8 D compared to series six volts.
Cell count is the same.
Resistance will slightly higher in the series six volts.
Amperage will essentially be the same if the cell count is the same. The weakest cell will limit the amperage available.
If, instead, there are two 12 volt jars, then amperage will be about 50% lower per cell. Amperage will not be limited to the weakest cell.
I'd still die and go to heaven if I could afford 2 volt jars in the region of 1000 amp-hours each.
