" Well, you're correct -- sort of a two into one deal. I was just going from memory, and know there are four ports easily visible from the "trough". They split far enough down that I was thinking cutting down enough to separate them and have enough sealing area would hit a water jacket. If you ever run across a cracked had and have some spare time maybe you could mount it on your vertical mill and find out.... ;>
alternatively, you could braze or silver-solder dividers in. there
are brazing alloys compatible with iron thermal expansion. spot-weld
the dividers to a bracket you can bolt to the head, then cut 'em loose
when they're in.
heating the whole head up enough to avoid cracking might still be a
challenge, but not as hot and thus easier than for welding.
