Default Check out these lines on my new LS7 clutch

My LS7/2 clutch came in the mail today and after opening it up I noticed that the lines which tell you how to align it for proper balance don't line up. Has anyone experienced this before or have any advice for me?

Oh yeah, you can see the line on the pressure plate that starts at the purple dot at the top of the picture. The line on the flywheel is on the bottom right in the picture.

The way the dowl pins are positioned on the flywheel, you can only put the pressure plate on in one position.

Well, you could put it at any of the 3 positions 120 degrees apart but I know what you mean, this is the position that's closest to the lines actually lining up. I was just looking for a little feedback to see if other people's clutches had them lining up perfectly or not. My last one was almost dead on.

When I had my LS7 clutch mine only went on one way but that was almost 2 years ago. It may have changed since?

For anyone like me who doesn't know, the components of this kit are balanced separately so that any flywheel can be used with any pressure plate.
