'69 Barracuda T56 swap, floor, cross member
Got dowel pins removed. One twisted right out with vice grips. Other one stuck. First drilled tapped 1/4 bolt hole in dowel and tried to pull it out with bolt but bolt snapped off where it meets dowel. Drilled out 1/4 bolt and drilled tapped 5/16. 5/16 threads stripped when I tried to use bolt to pull out. Then I was like gee what do I do now without messing engine block up? Took chiseled and hammer dented one side of the pin and that broke a lot of its grip free. Used vice grips and WD40 to twist it out. Several hours but block not damaged and they are out.
