[T3] Removing a broken stud


<x-charset Windows-1252>OK I'm sure that Jim is right and I'd better take care of this properly...

I broke off one of the bolts that goes through the heat riser valve thing
between the heat exchanger and the manifold.  This left a broken stud in the
heat exchanger.  First I tried to heat it up with a propane torch then
remove it  with vise grips.  When this didn't work I tried to drill out the
bolt and failed again.  Now I have the start of a  hole in the heat
exchanger that is partway over the broken bolt and partway off.  Is there
any way for me or a shop to get this out?  The engine is out of the car.

Thanks
Andre
