Awesome come to find out 2 of my 4 water pump bolts are snapped

I think they are above teh surface and not flush. What is the best way to get them out? If they are above the surface should i use Vise grips and try?

Ya, use what ever you can to get those snaped bolts out. Vice Grips, ect... Because if that dosen't work your going to end up taking it to the machine shop so that they will dill through the bolts and extract them at their price! Good luck.
