Great suggestions but I'd try the 2nd method first. Drilling off the head and removing the crank first means that you have much less to lose once things get nasty. Also, if the bolt is so tight you stripped it trying to remove it, the EZ-out might not have enough grip either. Sometimes drilling out the center of the bolt will loosen it up but it's easier said than done to drill a straight hole all the way down the center of a hard bolt. Good luck no matter what route you take.
