I have a 1952 3100 frame, just installed my "55' 235 on the frame and ready to install the clutch. I am using the bell housing from my 216 so the rear mounts were the same. The clutch arm and throw out bearing should work fine I expect. I am using the fly wheel from the "55" with electric start starter to eliminate the foot start. The shop manual states to line up the x on the flywheel with the x on the clutch assembly. I cannot find an x on the flywheel. Is this a problem if I just put the clutch assembly back on with out lining this up.

That only applies to original-equipment installations that were factory-balanced. Once the clutch and pressure plate gets changed, where the clutch cover gets positioned in relation to the flywheel is immaterial.
