The flywheel &the TQ converter are original to the L6 w/TH350. The 305 had a M/T, so I can't use those parts. Do I need a smaller flywheel or a different starter?

A manual has a fly wheel, an auto has a flexplate (that tid bit will help at the parts store!!! ) Also if you use the wrong flexplate the crank will be off balance and it will waller everything out. Also you need a 305 starter not a L6 __________________ Matthew Brough 1998 Chevrolet Venture -- 104,000 miles 1988 Chevrolet Silverado -- 156,000 miles 1996 Chevrolet Cheyenne -- 107,000 miles My 96 and 88 before the resto.
