shattered and caused an injury. pretty typical problem I finally got a chizzel and "encouraged" the bolt to move with los of penetrating oil the bolt was ruined and I had decided that torqs was not the best bolt anyway.WD 40 is not a penetrating oil just a water dispersal (WD)fluid
(dryer) use liquid wrench or similar. There are four holding the compressor to the engine and two additional holding the pulley bracket be very careful about the radiator hose as it feeds through the pulley bracket. Replace the factory bolts with Allen HT grade Cap screws about - now don't hold me to it but I think about 46 mm long all eight and that includes the three with the turbo shield tighten the upper and lower bolts holding the compressor to the block fitting first then the pulley bracket and then the shield good luck
