Go To A Transmission Shop And Get An Old Input Shaft And Thats The Best Tool You Can Use. Ive Used The Allignment Tool That Is Provided With Clutches But Nothing Compares With A Real One.

You can eyeball it if you're good with stuff like that. Put the pressure plate on and snug the bolts so the disc will slide around but stay put. Look through the hole obviously, but whats better is to feel around the edges if you can get your fingers between the pressure plate and flywheel, see if theres an even amount of space all the way around the outer diameter of the disc. Did mine this way and it slid right in.
