Broken Water Pump Bolt
Hi guys:
Last night I was installing a new water pump on my 455 and when I got to the last bolt, a longer one that goes into the block, I guess I went snap happy and broke the bolt.
I bought all new #8 bolts, stainless as I didn't want them to ever rust. I thought it was like impossible to break these bolts????
Anyway, I wish someone would have told me to use some anti sieze on the bolts FIRST
Anyway, I removed the waterpump again, and removed the balancer and the timing cover. The bolt is brokne in the block below flush. Does anyone know the best way to remove this bolt piece???
Appreciate your thoughts. HELP!!!!!!!!

In my experience you need only two tools in the workshop: WD40 if it doesn't move and it should, and duct tape if it does move and it shouldn't. .
