Thanks a ton for the suggestions, and for the interesting experiences working with titanium.
I ended up squeezing a good amount of super glue into the headset hole of the downtube, then rolled the bits into it. Worked like a charm!
My next decision is what to with the frame. I've got most of a road bike themed Dura Ace7400 group (but no cantilevers), and am pondering a drop bar gravel bike, but don't know if the geometry of the frame is right for either of those. Plus, I'm in need of a suitable fork, depending on what I do.
Thanks again for all the feedback!
Email Litespeed with the info you have (serial number, label details), and they can probably tell you what the frame is best suited for. Looks like good tire clearance near the bottom bracket, so maybe a loaded touring frame. Or maybe cyclocross, since it has brazeons for routing the rear derailleur cable along the seat stays. Measure the chainstay length, and that'll be an additional clue.
