    someone help please!

    hey guys i'm seeming to be having some problems changing my intake gaskets on my 91 gt got everything off fine only problem is one of the bolts were snapped off the one in front on the passenger side so i drilled through the center of the stud with an 1/8 bit and bought some ez outs tapped it into the hole i drilled then tried to turn it and the damn ez out snapped off in the hole i drilled now i cant ever drill it out again cause the ez outs are made of carbon steel and can't be drilled so now i don't know what to do if anyone has any ideas let me know or if you know of anyone that does that kinda work and be willing to do it in my garage let me know also thanks

    Pull the heads, take it to a machine shop and have it removed.

    While the heads are off ... (this is how the slippery slope of mods begins :D)

    i kinda figured that was going to be what i was going to have to do might as well get them to just redo the heads while they have it there is there much you can do to stock heads to make them better

    You can then use a larger bit, ez out or a larger bit and carefully roll the remains of the old bolt onto itself and pull it out. Be careful of the threads obviously. Probably would have helped heating the head near the broken bolt.
