That's right. The machine shop guy said standard practice is to go to a depth 1.5 times the diameter of the replacement stud. I did and the depth of the metal in the head was sufficient to take it.

Good luck. It was tricky to drill the holes perpendicular to the face but I got them close enough to work.
