Any advice on removing stuck studs in head?

[rfkellner at snet.net (Rick Kellner)]

John, I am not clear if the stud is broke off or not.  If it still has
something to grab, have you ever tied the Sears Craftsman eccentric stud
removal tool (see link below)?  One last method I will admit to using; a
nice sharp pipe wrench.

I have some studs in the 16V's head I need to remove and replace.  I
have 
tried the PB Blaster, Kroil, heat and even the wax trick with no
results.  
My next option is to weld on some of the new nuts and try that, but I
figure 
I would ask all of you for some thoughts on this.  Keep in mind before
you 
reply that I have tried PB BLaster, Kroil, heat and wax; I am saying
this 
because I am bound to get a reply suggesting one or more of these.

Thanks,
John Worden
