1...Where they are aligned in relation to c/face
2...How do the big producers in fact "find" the spine
3...Are they in all clubs
4...How important are they to the week-end golfer.

Any info would be grateful..Thanks again.
1. Personal preference, some say top of the club, some say target side.
2. They don't. Spine alignment in OEM clubs is non existent. Some shaft manufacturers do it on their graphite shafts and set up the graphics on the shafts to the alignment they prefer.
3. Pretty much, the severity of the spine varies though.
4. That is the million dollar question...I have considered getting my clubs flo-ed but no one in my area does it so I am thinking of doing it myself to see how it affects me.
