Header Help!!!! URGENT

91 Camaro 305 TBI........I successfully just removed the Driver side Exhaust manifold. And All but one bolt on the Passanger side exhaust manifold. How the F**K do you get the bolt closest to the Fire wall off? My car is sitting in my garage and i cantmove it lol. There is litrally 3 inches of hard to minipulate your way down to the bolt space. Theres not enough Room for a 3/8 in drive with a medium 14 mm socket. And you sure as heck cant get it with a normal size 14mm wrench. Its just not long enough. Does anybody have any ideas to how to get that bolt off? Do i have to remove the A/C Condenser Big Black box thinggy Atatched to the fire wall? If so, Will i be able to successfully reconect my AC? HELP PLEASE

just did this same thing about 2 hours ago. i had to pull up on the front of the manifold to break the bolt loose, then take a wrench from underneath to get it the rest of the way off. actually, i had to alternate between a wrench on the nut itself and pliers on the threaded part of the bolt after it was loose made it a lil easier. once you get it started it comes right off, so dont give up now!!!

Exactly, attack it at every angle you can. Also, if you have a 1/8" drive with the right socket, use it. I think this is what I ended up doing.
