Rebuilders: Help!

My buddy is rebuilding his 3.0 engine. We're having some trouble getting one of the stud nuts off. It's basically stripped.

We've tried heating the nut, drilling a hole through it and trying to turn it, and shouting it into submission. Nothing works. The nut is not turning. It is the top right nut on the #6 cylinder head stud.

Any suggestions? Should we take a whizz wheel to the head stud? We're in trouble here, Houston!
