Mapp gas, snap on stud removal tool, pipe wrench,patience. Plan on a few breaking if there not already. Sometimes it's necessary to drill one out or have someone with a EDM get one out. Nice to have a welder on hand too. Several threads on this subject just do a search and Good Luck!

Yes, Snap-On collet tool (with Mapp gas heat) is the way to go on those.

Double nut the threaded end and heat with a propane torch
