Header bolts
I noticed some sputtering from my car and saw that i had a header bolt missing from the passenger side closest to the firewall. i went to auto parts store and bought some universal header bolts and tried to install it but the bolt is in such a hard spot to install that i couldnt do it.. i was only able to screw it in half way. i cant install it and the noise is driving me fck!n INSANE !!!! can anyone help me with some tips on how to get that mo fo in?? can i remove some crap so i have some space to get a ratchet in there and tighten it up? i'd really hate to take it to a shop for one bolt that i can install... help.. ill take a pic in a sec and upload..

its not so much the tools but more of the location and my hand barely being able to fit. i got some replacement bolts that fit an allen but i just need a tool that can fit in small places. im just gonna buy the bolts that Mattdel recommended and a 12pack and put some sweat and blood into it.

well fars as positioning ive really never had a problem with that back one i saw in your picture.... is that your intake tube thats chrome in that pic? if it is you might want to remove that that way you can really get you arm into it its real simple to remove but if you have already i dont know what much to tell you i got that back one no problem
