I was able to remove the thermostat housing and replace the thermostat. I got the top bolt started but do not have enough remove to get the bottom bolt started. Can you tell me the best way to gain access to start the bolt?

These are a pain, you can either take the crossover pipe off which will give you good axcess but its alot of work.I use an open end or socket under the crossover pipe. There is not many options on these. You have to get creative. Post back with what you find.
