Default Stripped Rocker Bolt. -2002 z28 Camaro-

So I made a huge stupid mistake. I stripped the bolt on the last rocker by accidentally using a 7mm instead of using the 5/16. Does anybody have a way I could get it out.

I tried getting it out with a turbo socket but that didn't work since it was in the very back.

I use a impact screwdriver to crack the rocker arm bolts. sometimes your can force a smaller size socket onto the damage head of the bolt. or just cut or grind off the head of the bolt and use a pair of vise grips.
