TR3 flywheel mistake?

Hi guys,
I think I did a stupid thing. 
After fitting a new friction disc on the flywheel face, I tried to attach the 
pressure plate assembly with 5/16-24 bolts. The bolts didn't want to go. 
The engine had been done for some time and I just recently began 
re-assembling to the chassis. 
Thinking that the holes were gummed up from being idle so long, I ran a tap 
through them. Of course I did ALL the holes.
When I blasted WD in the holes to clear them, I noticed that chips came out.
I've reassembled the clutch but I think I might have inadvertantly changed 
5/16-18 to 5/16-24. 
Did I????......and if I did, will I have a problem????.....should I look for 
another flywheel?
Thanks for your help on this one.
