Will Torque Wrench Fit On Rear Head Bolts In The Car

Ive searched and am out on the road so I can't go out in the garage to look. Anyways, is there room to get a torque wrench and also an angle finder on the rear head bolts? In my mind it seems like its close to not fitting. It's killing me, I'm making plans in my head to do a head/cam swap in car and am trying to come up with any roadblocks that may occur beforehand. Thanks.

I've done the heads and cam in car. Not as bad as you might think. Just the radiator and ac condenser must come out for the cam to just make it out with about a half inch to spare.
