I believe this will not provide enough stability and you may end up with cracked or broken frame rails. The head stay mount cannot move or the frame rails end up handling to much of the load. Just going by your pictures.

Look harder. It has 4 bolts.. Plenty strong

I missed the 4 bolts originally.
I would probably weld it anyway but hey, there's a million ways to fix a Buick :-)

Still don't know what you are seeing? I see the original 4 stroke mount bracket on the frame that has two bolts per side but I do not see where the fabricated head stay bracket has four mounting points to the frame? Maybe my PC is not loading all of the pictures for some reason?
