1953 ,216 , 9" clutch, is there a certain distance the throw out bearing is supposed to be from the pressure plate?

When the clutch pedal is all the way up, the throwout bearing should be JUST clear of the pressure plate fingers. If you adjust the linkage per the service manual, that's where it will wind up.
