Question FE flywheel bolt pattern

Hi Guys,
another techie question for you.

Does anbody know the correct bolt pattern on an FE flywheel/crank? My flywheel from KEP has 2 holes at a slightly different radius from the other 4, whilst my crank (supplied on a built engine from Huddart Engines in the UK) has all 6 holes at the same distance from the centre. No matter how the flywheel is rotated only 4 holes will line up!

Which of these is correct for the FE? The flywheel will have to be modified whatever the answer, I would just like to know who has sent the correct spec part?

All holes on the same circle. One hole is offset though - the flywheel will only locate in one position. You will spend more time than you think finding the "right" spot...by spinning the wheel on the crank.

Thanks for that, I knew that if there was an answer to be had then this would be the place to find it.

That helps out hugely

Thanks again

Mark it with a punch, just in case it needs removed for whatever reason.
