easiest way to get to exaust gasket? need tips

ratchet wrenches work great for getting the heat sheild bolts off. I ended up breaking snapping the heads off and then cutting the dag'gum heat sheild with tin snips but I was going with wrapped headers... anyway. Sorry for the correction on this but there should be FOUR bolts to get your mani off not two... if you only have two your missing something... And if your 5th and 6th port actuaters are still in place you will need an extension and knuckle joint like phoenix said.

I think he's talking about where the rest of the exhaust connects to the exit of the manifold.
