Liam_D Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 What bolt is it?? What does it mount too? Quote
fremyjay Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 get an old socket hammer it onto the bolt and undo, if worst comes to worst drill it out and rethread the hole Quote
maddox710 Posted November 30, 2013 Author Posted November 30, 2013 Its a headbolt (cylinder head bolt) Quote
morgey Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Drill the head off remove the rest of the bolts as normal, take the head off then you could weld a nut onto the remainder of the bolt that's sticking out the block and undo it that way. Quote

aidanep71 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Happened mine I just beat a slightly bigger torque into it and it flew out Quote
maddox710 Posted November 30, 2013 Author Posted November 30, 2013 Still need to crack it loose Quote
aidanep71 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 It will loosen when your beating in a bigger size it's exactly what happened mine Quote
