bill the nut deal works good ,,but on those real tough ones that are broke below the face (in the hole) building up and welding a bolt to it will give you more material to weld ,some times welding a nut and filling the nut dosent always give you the most penetration on to the broken stud or bolt ,,,had one of my employees break a bolt on a 460 ford in a E350 cutaway van 3rd bolt from the back 80 degree day 110% humidty,,,,,man it looked like pulling the head was in the mans future,,,but we got lucky and was able to work a small miracle with that trick and to aid it we heated the head and spayed cold water on the welded portion (spray bottle) it was tight but it came out,,,,,,they called me the pope after that one ,,,,now if i could only be looked apon like that in my house hold
