Well we ended up putting something similar to a Timesert but it has a slot across the face to use to screw it in and it went in just fine. Machinist gave me the insert, loaned me his drill bits and a tap. Man what a deal!. Heads are on now and we are moving on to the rest of the rebuild.

Thanks for everyone's input.

Mike
