IGht the head stud for my exhast header broke off while tightening(wtf it was bareley tight) it. ANd i need to extract it it is sticking out about 1/2-3/4" so i can get ahold of it and have been trying with vise grips and well the damn teeth on the jaw are smashed down. But it was working. Is there ne other way (a faster way) to remove this?????:eek:

get yourself a small pipe wrench 6" i think is the smallest and use that instead of the visegrips(knuckle busters) the pipe wrench will get s better grip on the stud as you turn the stud out

A stud remover may work too.
