Can I/Should I...DRILL OUT MY FLYWHEEL

[Zekester]

I had a 3B shipped from across the country to replace the B in my '80 BJ40, it came without a flywheel, first I discovered the B motor flywheel bolts wouldn't fit the 3B, so after getting the bolts overnighted...now I find the 3B bolts are a larger diameter, and won't fit the B flywheel! Two questions....is it OK to use the B flywheel on the 3B...and if so, can I drill out the flywheel to accept the bolts...or do I rant and get them to send me the right Flywheel (more delays)....Common sense says tells me if they were interchangable...well..they'd be interchangable : )...opinions??
