Big Problem Help Me Out

Today I was going to change my thermostat and the one bolt was not coming out and I got it to start turning and then it snapped into 2 and is now flush with the intake, my car is overheating badly now and smoking, smoke is coming into the cabin of the car as well. Any suggestions?

u can buy a "Easy Out" kit from Kragen or somewhere like that, drill a hole in the middle of the stud, tap the correct size easy out bit into the hole, and with a wrench, back it out. Me and my friend had to do this when we broke off the fuel filter thread in the carb for his 67 Mustang.

go to summit racing's website www.summitracing.com , they have everything you need, if u type in the part number and click on the link that is associated with the intake, there is another link that lets you know "suggested parts", edelbrock has some intake bolts that have a cadnium finish and match the intake pretty well.
