I threaded in a 5/8" aluminum rod and secured them with red Loctite and ground them down flush. I was then ready to drill the new bolt holes with a 3.0" spacing. You will notice that the new bolt holes overly the old filled holes. So even if the red Loctite does not hold the threaded inserts in place, they cannot back out as the bolts going through the new holes and holding the caliper in place will prevent the threaded inserts from rotating and backing out.
I hope this answers your question.

Yes, perfectly. Thanks for the info.
