Exhaust manifold broken bolts

I will have my son send pictures. Thank you.

Also, it is a 4.3L six cylinder. (Previous typo).

Is there an e-mail to which I can forward pictures to?

Here are the pictures:

I know he hadn't used any heat in trying the extraction. Could you explain the correct procedure using heat to remove the broken bolts in the block. Thank you.

Thank you for your response. My son is currently en-route from Michigan to Florida (where I live). I will show him your information. I am planning to go up to Michigan next month to help him with this project. I will get back to you either tomorrow or Tuesday, the latest. I greatly appreciate all the input you have given me. Thank you.

Finally able to sit in front of computer. We will heat the area up first as you stated. Regarding drilling out the center of the broken bolt, should we use a left drill bit instead of the standard drill bit? If so, where would you recommend to purchase? Regarding bolt extractor; what brand should we purchase, as I do not want to purchase Harbor Freight quality for this job. Also, do they make short versions of bolt extractors as the bolt closest to the firewall does not give us a lot of working room. All your recommendations are welcomed. Thank you, Steve

When searching for a quality extractor I am coming across two types;spiral screw extractor and multi-spline screw extractor. Do you recommend one over the other?

Should the heat be applied prior to using the drill bit as well, or just prior to using the spiral bolt extractor?

Conclusion and update. We were unable to remove the broken exhaust manifold bolts with the head on the block. We had to remove the head from the block; unfortunately, 13 of 14 head bolts snapped. This was even after "shocking" the bolts with a hand impact driver. In drilling a pilot hole with a left drill bit to use the bolt extractor, the broken ends of the bolts all screwed out just using the reverse drill bit. Two of the broken head bolts came out easy; the two we tried to extract on the vehicle wold not move, even with heat. We would up drilling them out and used a heli-coil kit. After bolting the head back to the block, we put the gears back onto the cams and everything lined up perfectly and the cam cover was re-installed. I had to leave to return to Florida at this point. My son bolted the new exhaust manifold and connected everything else that had to be removed. Four days after I left, he faced timed me as he was going to start the vehicle. It started up perfectly, not one trouble light ( check engine, etc.) Came on. He drove the vehicle a mile that night. That weekend he drove it approximately 35 miles with out any issues. The oil (and filter) was changed twice. The vehicle has approximately 350 miles on it since and is working great. He is looking forward to passing the 200,000 mile threshold this year. Thank you for your insights to this project; I'm appreciative for 2CarPros!
