problem taking head off....

ok so on my 92 integra ls i was taking the head off cuz i just bought new gaskets (valve cover, head, intake, exhaust, valve guide seals...and more) so i pulled off my valve cover and took out the cams and as i was going to take out the head bolts, 2 of them were stripped!! ive tried almost everything i could think of to get them off nothing has worked yet. their 14mm 6 point bolts, a 6 point socket..didnt work...12 point socket...didnt work...6 point torque socket..didnt work either. ive also re-torqued down all the bolts and tried to see if the 2 stripped ones would free up like that but they didnt....

anyone know of a way i could possibly get these out without messing my head up? i would greatly appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks!

I know there is a way to find a small and durable enough drill to drill into the bolt itself and reverse it out...... I've seen it done when the heads of a bolt breaks off while bolten into something.
