Is there a certain tool to remove the two intake manifold bolts that goes into the heads up under carburetor flange on an Edelbrock Aluminum Intake there's no room to get a wrench on the bolts so what's the best way to remove and install these two boIts on each sides i have got all the other bolts out but the two on each side under the carburetor flange (middle intake bolts)cannot get a wrench or socket onthem.THANKS

You have to flip the wrench over side to side each turn. Turn the bolt some, flip sides, turn little more, flip sides.

If you want to get creative and have a disposable socket. Grind it down to make it shortened then use a 3/8 swivel. That might make it easier than the wrench if it works.

They do sell them but if you can make one it's almost free.
