I cut off the tabs on the back of the emblem since it was hitting the body, made a plate and j/b welded the bowtie emblem to the plate and the plate to the grill

Hahaha, i was just saying that about the twin in another thread...yeah thats the same emblem I picked up. Seems like the 2 studs are too long though. Maybe trim them down a little but didnt know what other people did before I busted out the grinder...

To answer my own question for anyone else looking for the answer, I cut the tips off the studs so they just barely poked through the grill, then took a washer and installed the speed nuts backwards. (Had to use pliers to tighten the speed nuts, just be careful not to crush the speed nut)
