How big is the clutch on a Chevy?
Chevy Clutch Housings. Most people define Chevrolet Bellhousings by the Clutch size (i.e. 10.5″,11″, or 12″). Flywheel Diameter (12.75″ or 14″) or number of teeth is more accurate because some 168 tooth flywheels are drilled with multiple bolt patterns, and the aftermarket makes a 153 tooth flywheel that a 11″ clutch and pressure plate will fit.

Small blocks used both sizes. Need to look at your starter and see if the mounting bolts are straight across from each other – small flywheel, or offset – large flywheel.
