Default header install

Iam in the middle of installing shorty headers on my 99' GT. I got ten of the sixteen bolts off but on the passengeer side the upper two i can't get to.
Any suggestions? Does anyone know how to install shorty headers step by step?

I take it you havent done the driver side yet have fun its even worse, my only suggestion would be to jack the motor up even more, take your plastic intake tube off the throttle body before you do this so you dontbind it or break something, it took mean hrto do passenger side and 6 hrs for driver side, but thats because I screwed something up on the driver side and had to do the header again. Longtubes are cool if you have a k-member, otherwise your clutch goes have fun trying to get your tranny out with longtubes, its not worth the extra power imo.
