It does make a difference. Six was 10" front 9" rear and v-8 was 11" front and 10" rear except for 63-up cars with disc brakes used 11" drums in the rear.

I take it that maybe you have a Studebaker in-line, 6 Cylinder overhead valve (OHV) engine in your '61 Lark?
It would say Lark VI on the front fenders and rear panel, also the serial number on the drivers' door post says: 61S for six cylinder.
If it has not had a engine or brake change and is still original, it would have as Nate said; 10 inch front and 9 inch rear drums. Be advised that they are getting quite hard to find now. Here are the Studebaker part numbers you can use, I understand that you can now Google these to find Studebaker vendors that list them.
The FRONT Drum with Hub is Part Number 1542150
can also use: 1558894
Without Hub 1542157
can also use: 1558901
The REAR Drum with Hub is Part Number 1542152
can also use: 1558898
Without Hub 1542158
can also use: 1558904
I am sorry, I have none, but their are other vendors on studebakervendors.com

SURELY, one of our Studebaker parts vendors would have these. If you start looking to just any old car parts place, likely you're gonna get taken, pricewise.[}]
