I dont have a 90degree drill but I have a 90 degree grinder, cant fit a small bit in it, so I am gonna drop the engine and drill it out and put a helicoil in it if I can find, at the store, I have them in my work tool box, but all that ---- is still on the boat comming back fron Iraq, and I am on leave at this point so I working on luck right now

tried all that, already! the options I have now is to wait till tuesday since its been an holiday since friday here, and pull the engine and drill it out with an easy out, but if that fail I am gonna have to rethread the hole, and I cant find any helicoils gotto go to the machine shop to see they have any.

pulling the engine would not be much of a waste anyway because I was gonna pull the tranny to do a lsd and clutch install, so I can just do it all at once. just hope I can find all the stuff I need for the job.

Drop the block and quit bitching
I'm just playing with ya man...but I guess that would be the easiest to do..
It happened to me also and I took out the block...it's a lot easier to work on with the block out

got the bolt out after so many days. they dont even have drill bits here that worth ---- they fall apart after a few spins I spent 150 euros on bits so far. now the next step is to repair the hole with thread inserts helicoil, I have those at work so monday it is on.

Weld a stud to it or a piece of all-thread and use a nut.
