exhaust manifold bolts :(

[Lpannell25]

Got the left side head out (looking from front of truck) snapped off 3 bolts on exhaust manifold on that side because they were so rusted. Now removing the exhaust manifold bolts on the right side 3 have been stripped and the others broke off.... any suggestions on the stripped bolt heads? of course it had to be the 2 in the back the toughest ones to get to...

I feel your pain. The ones on the top should be able to be drilled out and have a nut put on the back. Don't remember if the bottom is the same.

yeh the side that came off the studs are in the head i believe i can get those out the thing im worried about is getting the other side off with the stripped heads. buddy from work says he has a specialty tool that will hopefully work... will keep informed tomorrow if not im gonna need a new idea haha
