Broken Exhaust manifold stud -- have to pull the head

[ragragtimetime]

do you still have access to the broken bolt?: i have on occasion had luck with tack welding (a piece of large bolt/old tool) onto the broken bolt let it cool then heat up the metal surrounding the broken bolt & maybe get it out. good luck

Hey nope i don't have access to anything. it broke off inside the hole, and then i broke an extractor off too. The worst case .. i wish i had taken more time with it but i'm stuck with this mess now...
