Brilliant advice, I had a nightmare removing a dowel from the last cylinder head I had off. I used a head bolt and a set of grips and was off with very little effort. Thanks!
ok, here is question, how do you get one out that is too far down to get anything on, I replaced the head gaskets on a 2000 sable and stupid me overlooked the recessed dowel and put everything back together and ended up having coolant (water, haven't actually put coolant in yet until no leaking) going out the exhaust, I believe what is happening is the head was just enough out of alignment to allow water to flow into the lower intake and get pulled into the cylinder, I need to disassemble everything again, but how can you remove a dowel that is recessed or down to far?
Great work man 👏.
Beautiful. Awesome job.

Mines stuck in the head.. but this might work.. I have a welder, but I don't want to clean out the splatter. Thank you!
I usually use a screw extractor.
thanks to you sir

great, what if the dowel ain't hollow, what then?
Can I reuse the removed dowels with this method?
did you reuse the removed dowel? did they work?
Fucking brilliant thanks 😀
