There is about 1/8"-1/4" of threads above the head?

Can I remove this myself with standard tools (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

they had a tool very much like a plasma cutter but damn, it evaporized the broken stud! The stud hole was so clean that I was amazed

That would be a EDM machine. Electric Discharge Machining, I think it's called, and you're right it just vaporizes the metal, very cool. I've had some tooling made with a wire EDM, kinda like a very precise metal bandsaw, only with a very fine wire doing the cutting.
