Searched, Coil replacement I searched but was unable to find what I needed.
Is there an easier way that involves keeping my hands attached to my wrists to replace the third coil on the passenger side of the Ls1? I removed my STB, and still can't squeeze my big paw back there to undo the bottom bolt. Even with a ratcheting wrench I had no luck? Should I hire a two foot midget to do it? or is there something stupid I'm not doing?

you can do it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had the #8 coil go out, i removed the whole coil bracket and when you re-install put the coil wire on first then bolt it up, it'll take a little time (tight area ) but you'll get it , i did it twice, good luck .
to be honest man, your probably gonna bleed a little on the knuckles if you have been blessed to have the pointy bolts...you might want to replace those...number 8 is all about the wiggle...just wiggle it on until it clicks...

Okay, so I figured out how to do this in 30 minutes.
Remove your frickin EGR and unbolt the air pipe. SOOO much more room. Took five minutes to get the bracket out, and back in.
WHOOP!
All frickin afternoon I let two bolts stop me from success...
