I rounded the head on the rocker arm bolt any suggestions on what to use or how to fix???

Try tapping a smaller sized impact socket on the bolt and see if that grips it enough. That's what I did on one. I use a 5/16", 6pt. impact socket now for those bolts.

Otherwise, try a vice grips or cut a slot in the head with a dremel and use a screwdriver on it.

Good luck.

I did that once.Even a good 6 point socket would'nt grab.I took a 3/8 drive 8mm allen head socket and knocked the bit out with a punch.Then I tapped the 3/8 socket end over the rounded bolt with a small hammer......worked like a charm.

Sears sells a bolt extractor kit, they look like big hex nuts but with helical grooves inside...tap it on the bolt head, turn it out w/ a socket.

hacksaw a line in it and use a big screwdriver.. if theres room.. and you don't have an extractor.. or a smaller socket size doesn't work.

I had this exact same problem about 5 months ago . . . I got the extractor kit from Sears, had the thing out in about 10 seconds with it. Save yourself some time and effort and go to Sears. You never know when you'll need 'em again.
