So for the past 5 years I have been using a wobble socket and stubby wrench to remove those header to crossover bolts. It is very frustrating and with my big *** hands it can get pretty awkward contorting myself in there.

I'm about to pull them off again to replace the gaskets/crush rings and before I pull it apart, I wondering are there any tools that make this job way easier/quicker? Like a stubby flex wrench or anything? I am looking to start by 11am and be done by 3 so I am willing to buy something to make it easier for me..

Straight socket on a long extension makes it easy. You need the wobble for just one of the bolts.
Hold the nuts with a stubby wrench. A regular length wrench makes it harder.

cordless impact with an impact socket on the bottom, and a flex head ratcheting wrench to hold the bolts on the top. Easy pleasy.

I replaced the hex bolts with allen heads. Makes it easier i think to hold them from the top while i loosen with a socket and a long *** extension to snake through the runners. Every time i even think about having to disconnect that stuff i just want to replace everything with a v-band clamp.

Once was all it took to persuade me!

A ratcheting box end flex will hold the top nuts, and then you can use whatever for the bottom. Impact is a good idea.
