Rent the tool from Autozone. 3/8" drive ratchet and a few long extensions. Will need to reach down and disconnect the harness also. Shouldnt take more than 1/2 hour to do.

mmmm buttery exhaust pipe or you could use penatrating oil, when I tried to install my header I soaked everything in it, and all the boldt came off with almost no effort, kinda worried me too.
