Well, everybody has their own technique for busted bolts. I usually drill the bolt out as far as possible without getting into the threads. You can then take a small punch and wittle out the remaining material from the casting. If you get about a third of it out, you can chase the rest of it out with the proper size tap since it is open under the stud. I've done this many times and it is frustrating! Easy Outs work great on newer stuff. They don't work too well on 50 plus years of rust! Good luck to you and yes, we all have had our share of busted bolts. You will get the hang of it because this won't be your last!
