I know on the bolts I have previously broke, Ive welded nuts to the broken bolt, even if its flush with the surface and turned them out. Sometimes takes a few tries but is effective. I've also seen some good welders weld beads onto a broken bolt that is recessed and be able to pull it out. Not sure if it would work the same for your extractor, but its worth the shot.

oh ya, when you install your new aluminum heads. dont torque the headers and intake down like you would with on the stock cast irion heads other wise your running the risk of stipping the aluminum threads
