Capt. Mike

Is your system a 12V system? If so connecting two 27 series 12V batteries in series adds to 24V. I believe that would spin your starter faster for a short period just before the smoke starts.
I have used 6V golf cart batteries wired in series as starter batteries on a DD8V71 with a 12V system. Worked great.
