Default timing belt tensioner bolt rounded off :\

i cant get my new timing belt on because my tensioner pully bolt wont break loose.
i tryed breaking it loose and ended up rounding the edges down in multiple failed attempts.
now the 14mm bolt is about to be grinded out but before all that could somone maybe give me some helpful advice on how to get this taken care of
vice grips,wrenches,rachets all with out positive results :[
sorry if theres typos im very tired

Go to sears and buy a special socket to remove bolts that are stripped, put some heat on the bolt before hand...
