if your saying you broke a head bolt off in the block and want to not use it, I would suggest otherwise. Is it a small bolt or a large bolt? Anyways, GM does sell a kit to repair it, invest in it and fix it right.

When my car was stock, I spun a rod bearing. I was taking the motor apart and the was head bolt that look like it had been broke off since day one. Personally I wouldnt try it, but my car never leaked.

head bolt
Why dont you just pull the head off and use vise grips and spin it out. That stuff happens all the time. If that dont work drill it then try to retape the threads if there not messed up that bad
