The LS 6-bolt flywheel pattern has not changed. I noticed you got it from eBay. There's your reason why it won't fit. Sloppy machining.
One thing. You do know that one bolt is supposed to be "off" a bit from the pattern, right? Rotate the part until all holes line up.

Hi.
It's a quartermaster bought from speedway motors from Lincoln it's still tight on crank also not saying a bang with a hammer won't get it on but the bolts are off what ever way we try.
I am based in the UK so ebay was the easiest way not the preferred way.

The flywheel says “Quater Master”....or am I seeing things wrong?
I believe that’s a typical Flea-Bay imitation part. I’ve ran lots of QuarterMaster stuff in my circle track stuff, and it’s high quality and highly priced stuff.
Send it back. You can get a real one from Jegs for $15 cheaper, and it ships directly from QuarterMaster.

It DOES indeed say "Quater Master", and no, a company is NOT going to misspell their own name on their product. This one is NOT a Quartermaster. Your "trusted" seller is not to be trusted. Did YOU buy it from Speedway yourself? Or thru a middleman?
