If the bolt broke because it was overtightened then with the head off there is no longer any tension in the bolt and it will come off easy. If the bolt is cross threaded or seized you will be replacing the crank. I used to see this all the time on early h23 motors and could never extract the bolt. If it siezed then you can remove the crank and have a machine shop redrill and tap the block but at that point you might as well replace the crank.

The head is snapped off, so tension is not going to be a problem.

i haven't purchased a new drill/decent extractor kit yet, so i have yet to see if its cross threaded. I hope not.

Senor Honda came and gave it a try today.

No luck, the extractor bits may have been too soft.

I'm going to try and buy some heavy duty extractor bit and give that a shot.

you will need some super cobalt Extractor and bit to get thru that bolt,to me it will cost you less to try and weld

If it is giving you that much trouble start looking for a new crank.
