the exhaust manifold bolt. But I cant reach the plug wire to get it off and make clearance enough to get a wrench on the bolt. I'll try from under the car but when I looked at it from there I could barley even see it.

I got mine off from the top pretty easy actually. But I am a skinny kid so I can reach back there no problem.
Under the car is a better choice. I did that once and got to it really easily as well.

I have monsterous hands and can't fit them back there. I think it wouldn't be so bad from under the car but I need to get the plug wire off to do that. I just can't seen to get in there to get it off. So now the problem becomes how do I remove the plug wire with my giant hands not being able to fit.

Didn't remove the coil packs but everything else is out. I don't even Have a wrench /socket anything that will fit up there. I was able to get it moving a little with a gear wrench from above but, it's only a matter of time before my thumb that I'm turning it with decides to stop working.

skinny kid + LS1 = a good relationship between car and driver.
Big hands don't mix.
