well yesterday i decided to put on the bassani catted x ive been waiting to put on.
so i unbolt the stock h pipe and during the process a header stud snapped inside the header.
i tried drilling it out and using an easy out and nothings working. tried heating it up with a torch and still nothing.
any suggestions???

Get new headers.

Use a tap and die set.. drill the bolt out with a drill bit closest to ths size of the bolt. then re-thread it..

Too much work, you should be able to find headers pretty cheap.

fixed like he said. took awhile and was a pain in the ***. id like new headers but didnt wanna spend the cash or do the work.

used a tap and die set. drilled out the bolt,drilled out eventually and i rethreaded it.

got the x pipe on today finally and im happy with my purchase,made the car sound a little different and rpm's seemed to rise alot quicker,chirp second easily now.
