Hallo, I am also working with 6 motors in total (3 each side) I was wondering If you guys could share your connections data with me, At 12 v the bridge really gets hot. And it almost melted my jumper wires connecting to and in the power transfer pins

Hello work this with 6 Motors ? 3 Motors per site ?

Those motors should work. I'm not sure about what your requirements are. You can control up to 4 motors independently with L298N. I think you could either double up and have 3 motors per side, and live with 2 motors functioning in the same manner or alternatively use 2 L298Ns if you needed to control each of 6 motors individually.
