    Gooooood luck.....you're gonna need it to salvage that manifold.

    My first suggestion is heat - lots of it - get it to glow and try and turn
    them out. Expansion, PB BLASTER and torque may well work, but to be honest
    they may well be so frozen in they won't come out. Drilling and tapping can
    be done if needed, but be careful there too.

    You may want to keep this manifold with the old intake as a set for
    reconversion at a later date, and just pick up a cheap S.III manifold as a
    replacement.
