broke off motor mount bolt
 
I installed a new motor mount and while tightening the lower bolt (into the block) it broke off. I need a long (5-6 inch) EZ out. Typically they are about 3 inches long for this size bolt. Anyone know of a supplier where I can get a longer EZ out?

Thanks.

Tried Sears?

careful with those easy outs..... tried using one to remove a snapped IMS cover bolt and would up trashing the threads and having to helicoil. There's a product called Grabit that you may want to look at. It's a similar to an ez-out, but less likely to break off.

Have you considered just drilling it?
