IF somebody breaks one of their exhaust studs...

Heres hoping it stays that way till I get it all together.

Fingers crossed.  Legs crossed.  Eyes crossed.  Checks crossed.

Sears has a nice set of reverse drills for just such a problem.  The look like machinist center drills and have a very thinc body to prevent snapping off.  

They are really intended for drilling to use an extractor, so they don't drill very deep.  I used one on a rear caliper bolt that I stripped the head on and it backed the bolt out while I was drilling it.

Goetz:

You should ask Parts 'n More this. Under the Contact tab on their website, they have an email address for "Technical Inquiries". Better to ask the source in the case you have problems with their products.

Just my two cents.

Good luck getting it out.
