Default Any way to replace TOB w/o removing headers?

Something's wrong with my throw out bearing and its making a lot of noise under load. i want to replace it but i do not want to remove my headers. i purposely installed my clutch and new TOB before i installed my headers for this very reason.

I put my clutch on my T45 before I put the engine in the car. If I ever have to change the clutch, the whole pack is coming out of the car, no "If's, And's or but's", about it. I'll value a bad TOB and clutch with the need of a built T56.

(I know I need a new trans to support the power I make so it's not really a stretch. )

hmm well that sucks. yeah i have the 3650 in it. the TOB isnt effecting the drive at all, it just rattles between 1700-2100 rpms. taking out the headers will be a PITA i dont want to have to deal with again.
