the broken 1 only has like 2 threads if that showing , is that enough to get a bite on it?

Probably not, I must've missed that. What you need to then is have a nut welded to the remains of the stud, is that possible? If not, those manifolds are not that hard to remove, just take the manifold out and try to do it on a bench or take it to a machine shop.

No problem man, I'll be right over, lol. It would be best for you to do have a nut welded to the remains of the stud, then work it in, then out-sounds dirty-as long as it's not rotted (which I doubt by year and condition of your car) it should be a have to remove the manifold, it's not as hard as it looks, most of the bolts are removed with a wrench and you can loosen the mount and jack up the engine to get some more room.

if that doesnt work drill it through an put a high grade bolt and nut in!thumb:
should be enough room to slip a bolt in might be a bitch to get a wrench on the top but what else are ya gonna do?

Well we welded a nut to the cheap ass bolt and everytime it broke the bolt off (not the weld) so we pulled the manifold today im going to take it to the shop drill it out and re tap the hole so the fobra can get her upgrades lolthumb:
