I say "amen" to Bob's suggestion, AFTER looking at the pictures carefully.
What is depicted that argues against his idea?

The hole in the center of the "tower" and the fact the valve cover
nearly touches the sides of the "towers"?


I suppose if you used 4-40 flatheads, one on either side of the stud,
it might work. Brazing still seems best to me.
