Help removing intake manifold
Decided to take the head off tonight to get the 3mm head gasket on for my turbo build. The manual is a little lacking in removal of the intake manifold. I have everything off except the lower bolts holding it to the head shown here:
Big view:
These bolts on the lower half are what I need off. How the hell do I get to them?
Thanks ladies.

You'll need to try a combination of the following:
small ratchet with extension and socket
small ratchet with socket
You pretty much need to "force" your hand underneath the manifold and then feel around for each nut. Accept the fact that you are going to get a few scratches.

I'll give it another swing tomorrow morning and try to find all of my universal joints. I was just wondering if there was a trick to it. (Like when getting the starter bolt out before dropping the transmission)
