Well today I started the installation of my headers. So far I got the y pipe and the drivers side manifold off, I'm just having a hard time getting to the last bolt of the passenger side manifold . Any tips to getting it?

I used an air ratchet with a swivel and socket worked great for me

I was able to loosen mine from underneath with a long handle torque wrench and short socket. Once it was loose, I went at it from above with a gear wrench.

hit the harware store, pick up a set of swivel (sp) head gear wrenches, socket extensions, and socket u-joints. On your way home, stop by the 7-11 and get a bottle of patience

I just used a standard 3/8" ratchet and got it from underneath.

I took off the valve covers for more clearance.

I used a 10 mm wrench and put a foot long piece of pipe on it. I had a mini cheater bar setup.

I spent about 2 hours with a die grinder and grinding stones (couldn't get the cut off discs on a Sunday here) getting one freaking nut off the pass side manifold/cat.
But I never had any problems getting a fairly straight shot at any of the bolts, using extensions.

Update..........
I was able to finally drop the passenger side manifold. I used a breaker bar to break the bolt loose and just for a little bit more room I took of the valve cover. Thanks for the help guys I hope everything goes smooth putting in the headers.

[B]Just installed a set of ceramic coated flowtech LT's.Took about 8 hours for whole procedure(no compressor)...the flowtechs fit was awesome,price was good...338 for coated headers and 130 for coated y-pipe from Summit.Used 1/4" drive rachet(good for tight spots).
