Trying to install my pressure plate on my '74 2.0L . All the bolt holes and indexing pin holes line up, but the indexing pins will not fit into their respective holes- pins are a tiny bit too large for the holes. Is it kosher to file down the pins or drill out the indexing holes a tad? Don't want to muck things up at this point. Need advice. Thanks.

I wouldn't touch the pins. I would adjust the holes on the pressure plate. How much of a difference is there?
