If you are looking for studs, here is what I did (although my holes were not buggered at all): I installed new mounting studs during installation. |
Here's what I am thinking of duing.
I have some 99% pure aluminum 'shot' from a sience class. I was going to
melt that, and then pout it into the cleaned holes, then retap new holes
into the new aluminum. My concern is that the new metal will not adhere
to the original casting.
Or, JBWeld some studs into the holes. Still, I worry about adherance
issues. I'm talking BIG holes, here!
