Legally in 2010 codes you probably can't. This affects your insurance, and maybe child services if something comes that way.
Practically it does work to do what you want, esp if you have an old loose poorly insulated house. If it's a new tightly wrapped wind-tight house then there can be issues.
I don't understand using an 8 inch for a portion of it all, and then choke back to 6 inch. Why bother with the 8 inch then.
What size is the bottom furnace shimney, if that is 7 or 6 inch output, then no it doesn't work tochoke it back to a 6 inch higher up, you need 8 inch all the way if the bottom furnace has 8 inch.
A wood furnace works so much better than a wood stove, block off the wood stove totally & just run a propper chimney up from the furnace - if it works on 6 inch you got simple. If it needs 8 inch, well then you need to put 8 inch all the way up.
