Header Bolts
 
Whats the best way to get the passenger side header bolts off and what angle to work from thanks!

Some of them are VERY MUCH easier to get to if you go from the bottom with the starter removed. I believe the 3, 4, 5, 6 header bolts are all easier from down low (although it might just be 4,5,6). The first three are right there.

Get it from underneath its your best bet.

PATIENTLY do it from the bottom......when you get pi$$ed, just relax, take a beer, and sit back...go back 10 minutes later!

Have you not taken the dip stick out? If not, then unbolt the one bolt that holds the dipstick to the block. Slowly from the top of the car pull the dipstick and tube out of the block by slightly wiggling (sp) it back and forth. After the dipstick is gone, you are on the home stretch.
