Default Threads on bolt messed up

Hey guys, I was just about to swap one of my valve adjuster bolts out but it wont come all the way out cause when I broke the top of the bolt off (over torqued), it messed up that top part of the thread (valve adjuster bolts only come out from the bottom), so before I dremel off the top of the bolt tommorow, are there any better suggestions? I don't want to screw the thread up even more. I've waited two weeks for this adjuster screw and now this happens Thanks in advance to all that help.

fixed it today, I just grinded down the bolts carfully so there was no thread left on the top parts.
