Hey, I have 3 studs broken off at the head. I take it you had the head out when you got the bolts out?
i tried to loosen one and it broke off without any force! These things are delicate after 13+ years of hot-cold hot cold.
I would use stock ones again because they last for over 10 years anyway. If you are keeping the car for another decade.........try something exotic, otherwise I would go with the ones as engineered - even if not perfect.
Please tell me any tricks you used to remove the old ones. Was the head out? did any break? did you use penetrating oil?
Please let me know. I have to do something soon or I will be breathing CO fumes..........
