CRX: trouble with alternator Generic help

[marc smith]

Hey folks

On my project CRX the bolt which hold the altertaor to the engine so that it can pivot to tighten the belt has rusted to to the alternator. There is a metal sleeve whichis rusted to the bolt. does any one have any tip and ricks to get this out.

I have tried heat, pentrant, brute force (5 lb sledge with 2'ft rebar so I can really wail away at it) I have even gotten destructive with my dremel and a cutoff disc but due to space limitations it can't cut any deeper ino the alternator

I guess my next step might be tro try a drill and drill perpendicular into the bolt and alternator. I guess at this point I have already lost my core deposit so I have nothing more to lose.

Any suggestions?

Also.. to keep this Impala related. hoping to get the CRX done so I can work on the springs and shocks on the Big Car.
