a driver from 16 to 8 ohm by replacing the voice coil assembly? Silly question?
Thanks for any help!

Yes, though it usually entails a complete re-cone.

Loud is Beautiful if it's Clean! As always though, the usual disclaimers apply to this post's contents.
Just curious as to your need to do this.
Nothing like a great big pair of speakers to make your day.

I'm thinking of buying a pair Altec 806A drivers that are 16 ohms and would like to run them with the rest of the system which is all 8 ohm.
Is this not necessary?

No, it's fine that way, you just have to adjust your XO, L-pad, Notch, Zobel, BSC and Shelving components accordingly.
Who's doing the crossovers?

The project I am attempting can be found by following the link below.
The changes I would like to make are to use an Onken box design utilizing one 416.
I'm hoping it all falls together because I don't have the know how to do anything about it if the mid and bass don't come together at the right point.

You can get new 8 ohm diaphagms from Great Plains for a reasonable cost. They also sell new drivers that would work.
