Ah Geez, pulled an exhaust stud, what are my options... Options

[Britain Smith]

Well, I actually thought I was making progress again on my turbo type-4 motor. I had everything mounted up and was working on the wiring and routing of the oil lines. Last thing I needed to do was to tighten up my stub pipes and bolts on the exhaust...and then it happened. I was torquing the last stub pipe on and I felt it give a little bit and there it goes.

So, here I am...I decided to take a little breather. Is there anything I can do without pulling the head off? I am pretty sure I will be going that route, but I thought I would ask. I am kicking myself in the ass for not getting this done before I bolted them on. I have half the sense to pull both heads and get them both done.

Those LE220 heads from Jake are looking better and better these days (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) ...but I have to stay on track and budget...
