Ok. It's a tool that I think I'll only use the one time so I was hoping to avoid it. I think maybe I'll need it after all but was on the fence about it.

I plan to do the header install with hand tools but now I'm scared I won't be able to muscle off all the bolts on the header if they're all going to be seized... Any advice?
