Jim, you can do it. Drill the hole for the fork first and then use
that as a guide for drilling the shaft. It doesn't have to be THAT
precise as you're installing a bolt with a nut. Guaranteed you will
sleep better if you do this mod. And as an added bonus you won't have
to be precise about the torque on the original clutch fork pin. Snug
tight will be good enough.
