Converting a MK 4 to a MK 3, Moving the tack

Has anyone tried moving the tack point on a MK 4 back up to the bow, to the same location it is on a MK 3? It seems that it would be easy to machine and bend a piece of stainless that could be attached in the same way it is on a MK 3. And as a trial option, it looks like one could attach the forestay to the pin for the anchor roller, which should be about the right location. The aluminum casting at that point looks thicker than where the forestay is currently connected, though aluminum castings aren't known for their strength in tension. Comments or suggestions?
