Default Need help getting bolts out of exhaust...

...manifold.

I managed to get the studs out fine, but two of the bolts connecting it to the crossover pipe have rounded and they are in an awkward place for getting a wrench around them. Any thoughts on how to get these last two out? I'd really hate to destroy the manifold if I can help it, but this is what's between me and changing the folter mount seal. The other bolts just snapped off instead of turning-- and that's fine. But these last two just spin.

Also, are there any "while your in there" things while the manifold is off, assuming I get it off. I remember a post about using Subaru exhaust studs instead of what's there to make pulling the manifold easier... where did that head? part numbers? Anyone try it?

You can grind the head/nuts off with a dremel, using either a grinding stone or a cut off wheel.
