On my 1947 COE (46 style):

I have a 1960 engine (235) from a pickup that has a 10" clutch disk. The original engine (235) from the COE has a 10 3/4" clutch.

I'm putting in the 1960 engine and am planning on using the clutch that came with it. Will there be any reason that I should try to use the bigger clutch? I'm thinking that if the 10" clutch worked with the engine in a pickup, putting it into a COE with the same engine shouldn't really change anything. Am I right or out in left field?
