Wrong swingarm?

I bought an alloy swingarm off a guy who was breaking his dd bike, went to try it on today and it doesnt fit my engine, the differences are a smaller gap between the pivot mounts 155mm and 28mm pivot hole. My steel arm has 177mm and 20mm hole. Are there different types of swingarm?
Is there anyone that would be able to swap mine for one that fits? dont fancy making it fit with cutting and making spacers.

cheers

Sounds like you have a Vellichi swing arm off the earlier models where they even had a dry clutch on the 750 engine.
I tried buyng one of those arms for a project a few years ago off Ebay, but was out bid by an Ex DDer with his own Bike Business that thought he knew better.
Might be better trying to sell it to someone doing a TT2 project as some of the ones out there cost a fair bit
