Glad you got it Gary. I have no luck with the reverse thread easy outs and they have caused me so much grief that I threw them all away years ago. Somewhere I still have the square tap in ones but haven't used them forever.
I was going to suggest bolting the head back on and using a sleeve for a drill guide.
You should rename your garage The Lazarus Project,lol. I am kindred spirit in making stuff work without a lot of $$. The 260 in my rpu was pulled from a fairlane that had sat in a field at least 15 years and I've been pounding the dog crap out of it for 5 years now.
