67' 289ci - broken exhaust manifold bolt

Mar 15, 2005 2 Replies

I have broken a bolt off in the block. It is not the actual exhaust manifold bolt, but the bolt that holds the smog line up to the block (right side)......any ideas about how I can get it out?


One option would be to use an 'easy out'

Another would be if there are any threads at all left sticking it out, you could get a nut started on it and then tack weld it from the inside the hole in the nut. That would give you a head to twist on. The heat from welding it on would likely loosen the bolt too.

Spray the bolt real good with WD-40 each day for a week first, then do what Kate says.
