I have had success with 3 rusted head studs on my Ruby using heat combined with plumbers freeze spray, penetrating oil & a cup of tea.

I warmed up the stud and area of the block around the stud. Not too much just enough so fingers cant touch it.

Then a cloth placed around the stud base and a liberal dose of freeze spray. The cloth stops the block from being cooled. The stud is cooled quickly and contracts then remove cloth and spray it with penetrating oil.

Boil the kettle, make a cup of tea.
Drink tea.

I then used the type of stud extractor as described by Hugh Barnes.

Wear gloves. The freeze spray creates -30deg. Your skin does stick to the cold metal. Dont ask how I know Big Grin

This tip was gained from an Agricutural engineer who deals with rusted studs on a regular basis.
