Default Putting on new flywheel

The 302 is finally done with a rebuild, and all I have left to do is put on the new flywheel. I know it takes the 28 oz. imbalance, and the harmonic balancer slid right on because there is a "key" that only lets it go on one way. So my question is, which way does the flywheel go? Should the weight be directly opposite of the weight on the balancer? Or lined up with it? I know I am probably totally overcomplicating this, but I don't want to have to pull this thing apart later on! Thanks!

Thebolts on the flywheel are drilled in such a way that it will only go on one way.
