Instead of welding up the holes, i thought in PPC recently (ish) they industrial glued in some lumps of metal to fill the existing holes - means the
one that is 5.3mm away has more to push against.

One possibility might be to leave the old studs in and just cut them flush with the face of the hub
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!

couldn't you just use hubs off a mk2 focus ?
I think they are 4 stud, but in any case its a question of whether they would fit the sierra upright. I like your thinking though, if I could find a 5
stud hub that would fit the sierra upright I would be sorted, and no need for dire warnigns of deth too!
Mk2 focus (2005 onwards) and most of the other fords, mazdas, volvos - all have 5x108 PCD's
if you could live with a 5x112 PCD then you can make a granada hub fit in a sierra upright

surely can't be right, those and Argos flat pack keys are made from sub standard metal - and would surely round off if you tried to undo that
hub.
