Haha, thats Funny.
Take out the bolts for the master cylinder, then you can pull the master out and move it over to the side a little bit. Then you can get that bolt out. easy buisness

You can also remove the 2 bolts on the ABS block and pull the entire assembly (MC and ABS block) out of the way. It sounded strange when Sam told me this, but it worked great.

I did this except i loosened it enough to move it out some and angled enough over to slip a bit with a ratcheting flex wrench on it and zipped the stubborn one out
