Something is out of Balance If I am putting a stock pressure plate from one vehicle onto another stock flywheel how should i orient the PP. Can I just put it on there or does it have to go on exactly the way the old one went on?

if it has a paint dab on the PP than line it up with the dab on FW. If not bolt it on the same orientation as one you remove.
with that said most aftermarket clutches do not have a mark and i have bolted them on in any random way and not had a issue.

You need to have the plate and flywheel balanced together because the OE parts are not balanced independently. Meaning, when they are built for GM, the clutch and flywheel are spun together but not separately. If you do not do this you will most certainly have an issue of imbalance. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks,
