Here's a pic of the dog bones after grinding.

I had to grind the block side down to where none of the vertical element was left.

I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish here. The dog bones maintain the lifter alignment and duplicate what the plate is meant to accomplish. You still have to fabricate a "spider" to keep the lifters from flinging the dogbones off.

He used the plate to pinch the dog bones between the block and plate.
