Taking out a 230 6 cyl and dropping in a 327.I noticed different clutch sizes.From 9 to 11 inch clutch.Do I need to find a flywheel for this 327 to go in front of my 3 speed tranny?

 I'm pretty sure your belhousing and flywheel will take a 10.5 inch clutch. You will have to upgrade for a 11" clutch. There are people on here who will confirm that for you.

If you simply want to pull the clutch, flywheel and bellhousing off the 6 cylinder and put it on the 327 you can do that. It all fits. GM is great!
