This is Risky and Dangerous!! A Last 'Desperate' Resort, used Only when All Else Fails!!

Again with the Acetylene Torch...Heat the Head up, evenly to RED HOT. Stand Back and Poor a 'Bucket' of cold water over the Bolt. Expect a Steam 'Explosion'! This 'Should' Crack the Head, making it easy to Snap the Bolt Head Off using that Sledge Hammer. This can Risk Cracking the Head, Itself!
