1/4 drive and deep socket got all but 2 bolts. rear cyl only had 1 bolt the rest had 2 I think.

cyl #1 Needed a wrench.. and a ratchet wrench worked perfectly from around the power steering hoses. The bolt fell but an extendable magnet pen picked it up after the manifold was out.

this one also couldnt fit a socket I think. used the wrench. I accidentally gave it a little turn tight before I realized

.

A little nudge and the manifold slipped right off and down. Uplugged the o2 and made sure it didnt snag on the braided line and it came right out !

Sucker is heavy !
