Headers Question

Alright got the tranny fixed and it runs fine but im losing noise from the exhaust and a lot of power... There is a knocking type sound when you accelerate, I minimized the problem down to the gasket on my headers being bad, its on the driver side so its much easier to get to... What is the best way to replace the gasket on that side, from the top or bottom? and should I bring ramps so the car sits high enough if done from the bottom?

Thanks guys I appreciate the help if there is any lol

open end wrench always works best. sometimes youll get lucky enough to find a socket with a small enough outer diameter to fit in those tight spots
