I'm assuming it's the same construction as the Eights. It's been discussed here before so a search may be helpful. But in a nutshell, mill out the welds over the bolt heads, then mill off the bolt heads, remove the weights, and then remove the remnants of the bolts. You'll need to make or locate new bolts, secure them in place by welding, and then of course rebalance the assembly. Plan on an extra $200-$300 in costs above and beyond what would be required for a simple crankshaft with the same number of journals.
