yesterday I was tightening my head bolts down and snapped one off at 80ft. lbs. of torque, i was going by this and was trying to reach 90 at least http://1954advance-design.com/Stovebolt-engine/head-bolt.html I don't know if it snapped off in the block very deep or if there is a little bit sticking out that i might be able to get hold of. i am going to look at it later, but my question is how do I remove this bolt if it did break off in the engine, and where can i get new head bolts?


thanks in advance, Indy wink
