I suppose i use the word "crazy" strictly because i have honestly never heard or run across a setup similar to that in such a high vibration environment. I didn't know cast iron was available, i iwll probably take your suggestion and see if i can track one down. I am still learning what is cross-compatible.
For now, i drilled and tapped the two meaty mounts on the pan with 1/2" and the tighter ones with 7/16"
