Heat treated bolts would get a minimum of heat to the thick head only, zipping it with a Mig would not introduce a lot of heat to the entire bolt. Id do a hammer test on them to make sure I got the right penetration to retain them. Unless someone has a spare set they would sell me. $25?
Option 2 would be to stud the bottom end and drill the tray to accept another nut past the main torque nut but that would get expensive.
If someone that had one could measure the height of the OEM windage tray head, that would help me to determine how much of a standoff to build in. I would use 1/4 rod unions and cut to height.
