Well I looked it over today, and it don't look good. I'm not well equipped for this kind of work. 45 years of rusted seizure, and I don't even need to round the bolt heads off since they are already round-ish.
So what do I need to do to get this off? I looked through my tools, and I don't think I have anything much that will help. A socket isn't going to work, and the bolt heads are too small to get anything else on easily. Even if I get a grip on what is left of the head I'm anticipating it will just twist off.
An idea I'm thinking on is cutting off the heads (If I can get to them) to remove the manifold first, then working with the shafts sticking out. I also know that heating the bolts with a torch might help, but at this point getting a grip on them is my main issue, heated or not.
Any insight on how to get this off would be greatly appreciated.
