Rounded Nut
I rounded off a nut holding my exhaust manifold onto my block. Is there anyway to get it off besides cutting it? I dont want to damage the stud since im not sure if it is replaceable or not.

Re: Rounded Nut
I went to Advanced Auto and got some craftsman thing. Its a socket with like blades on the inside that dig into the nut and hold it. There bad ass. When i got the nut out, the stud also came with it so i replaced it with a bolt from the exhuast manifold.
Thanks for the help guys.
