Head stud refuses to remove!

I've started trying to remove the head studs from the motor. THe first 8 came out nicely with heat and using two jam nuts. Problem is, the last 4 on one side will not come out. I heated the case well with propane...

Tried jam nuts (stripped the threads) and tried a cam-lock stud remover (won't grip).

What now? (I guess welding a nut on?) I'm NOT a very good welder and only have a small oxy-MAPP system.
