I was installing the drivers side timing chain guide(the straight one), and one of the bolts snapped off in the head. There seems to be no way of getting it out. I tried the bolt out reverse thread thing but nothing seems to be able to drill into the bolt....I think I royally ****ed up this time. Let me know what you guys think I should do.

Go buy a good set of reverse drill bits. If the engine is in the car, use a 90* drill or unbolt and lift the engine a bit. Easy Fix just go slow.

I tried using reverse drill bits, but it doesn't want to pierce into the bolt.

yea i would get it to a machine shop if you can. you dont want to mess up those threads in the head which is very easy to do once you start drilling. Maybe try heating it up with a small torch or something before you try to pull it out

jvog
