Broke a bolt to the cams caps and can't get it out:mad: & Yes i was torqueing it with the torque wrench so don't go on blast with me just need some Help
 
so i assume it broke off flush with the head?
ie:nothing to put vice grips etc on?
you can try an easy out, and if that doesn't work you can drill it and tap it, but honestly, you'd prob be better off taking the head to a machine shop right now...

things stuck in aluminum have a way of going from bad to worse REAL fucking fast, especially if you're not very experienced in this sort of thing...
it'll prob be less than 50 bucks, and done perfectly
 
You won't get a clean drill/tap on a hardened steel bolt stuck in an aluminum head.. the drill bit will slip off the steel and make a mess, no matter how steady handed you are.

You removed the other cap bolt and took the cap off, right? Broken flush with the aluminum?

If this is the case, :werd: on the machine shop.
 
well th bolts aluminum not steel and i local machine shop say they'll yake it out for 30
 
I gaurantee you there are ZERO aluminum bolts in your gsr head. Nice try though. Go have the machine shop do it for you. My .02
