It depends how much of the bolt is actually left sticking out of the block. You could try just grabbing it with a pair of channel locks and doing it he-man style, or you could take a dremel and put a notch in the end of the bolt and try to get it out with a standard (flat) screwdriver, or something similar to that.
If there isn't much of it sticking out still you may have to go to a machine shop and have them drill it out and retap it with a larger bolt...that or you could try doing it yourself if you have the proper tools.
