I decide to try my hand at installing the upgrade to front cobra calipers myself. Somehow I managed to strip one of the passenger side caliper mounting bolts. Those things were REALLY torqued on there tight! What can I do to get the bolt off?

Is Liquid Wrench any better/different than WD-40?

WD40 is useless for that kind of work. Go to Autozone and get some PB Blaster.

Here is a rounded bolt removal tools set from Sears.
