OK, I have a tendency to move faster than I think, amazing I got this far in life. I was reading the assembly procedures for the clutch and clutch pressure plate, as I read it talked about marking the position of the pressure plate in relation to the flywheel in order to maintain the balance. DAMNIT! Yup you guessed it I didn't do that. Primarily because I haven't had to do it with the standard block engines I have worked on before.

So, is there a way to remedy this mistake or am I just kinda hosed and, how much of a difference will it make since the rest of the motor was balanced?

Yes, it makes a difference. Having balanced hundreds of assemblies I can say that the index of components as they are balanced is very important. This is the reason why we index EVERY pressure plate bolt per position. The pressure plate and flywheel are THE most important components to balance and index due to their diameter and mass.
