I have a friend that has a Center force pressure plate and DF clutch with low milage I need to know if the clutch spline count and shaft size will work with the center force clutch?
I am pretty sure that the clutch is 26 spline with a 1 1/8 inch shaft

10 splines yes but more than likely its a 1-1/8" shaft but it might be a 1-1/2" shaft

1-1/8" diameter 10 spline.  Did an internet search for "sm465 input shaft" and grabbed the first website that came up: http://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge/sm465.htm.

That website looked legit. and states only one input shaft size.  A few different output shafts.

Irish is right. Bulldog, if its for a 465 it will be 10 spline, but it will be 1 of 2 shaft diameters. Do you know what vehicle application the centerforce was used on?
