15.5" is too large for Chevrolet, as a Packard straight eight flywheel will barely fit in a T56 Chevy housing, and it's 1" smaller than the Packard V8. (This is manual trans we're talking here, NOT auto, at least on Packards). My guess is Ford, as the 184 teeth give it away as an FE series flywheel. The good news is, I was thinking of having one of these cut down and redrilled to fit a Packard, along with a Packard ring gear salvaged from an Ultramatic flexplate on the V8's. Alas, not enough time to complete all the projects!
