As I am starting to learn more about layouts, I have noticed that the mass bias is in totally different locations on all my stuff. So now I am wondering in general what to expect from my layouts?
Mainly my AMF double clutch that is drilled pin below fingers , cg slightly right of val and below pap, with mb slightly left (about 1/2 ") and directly below thumb (about 1")? Sorry I dont know my actual numbers.
And my double clutch pearl that is drilled pin above fingers, cg slightly right val on pap, with mb directly right of thumb (about 3")?
I was wanting the solid to rev up early with smooth arc off friction to play on heavier oil. And the pearl to be long and strong for medium and broken down shots.

I would say your CG is right of COG (Center of Grip Line) and not your VAL. Please double check?

Were these balls 2nd or blems? Are the pin, cg, and mb in a straight line or was the cg kicked way out to the right? If they weren't in line the cg could be right of the val if these were blems! Take some photos for us to see!!!
