  • Broken bolt, broken drill bit - machine shop?

    I broke a bolt for my valve covers off. I tried to get it out with a revers drill bit. That is broken off too now. It is a mess... I have the head off now. GT 40 if it matters.

    Any recommendations for a machine shop in Mansfield/S Arlington to fix this. How much should I expect to pay?

        Thanks for the recomendation I called Arlington Machine Shop an was told they couldn't remove the broken off bit-they said they needed a special tool that they didn't have.

        I took to Google and phone calls.
        The head is at Wells Cylinder Head in Midlothian- I don't know anything about them except they said on the phone they could do it.
