Hit it with chems, put some vice grips on it, nice and tight, and tap on the top of what's left of the bolt with a hammer..... keep tapping and trying to turn, and hitting it with more chems. Takes patience, but, will eventually break it loose.

Wow I guess I got really lucky when I did mine because I didn't break any bolts except one on the thermostat housing.
