hi all does anyone know the best way to get broken studs out of my head ?
ive removed my turbo and 2 studs were broke and they are not sticking out at all.

thanks leigh

skitz - take it your the one lives down garden city? white nova?

if can get on the head square with a drill, try and drill the centre of the broken stud(use centre punch first) and use say a 3mm drill, then work up until say a 7.5mm dril then try to collapse the stud or say drill to about 6mm or so and use an 'easy out' and some heat.

if give me a text 07807 040522 i can drop some easy outs down for you if want, only up in hawarden. phil
