Well it happend, rounded one of the damn nuts off, and of course it's the
hardest one to get at.  Man, ramoving this manifold is definitely the
biggest ass pain i've ever encountered!!

So my two problems are.... how to get this nut off (my dad said i should try
a nut breaker or something....ouch).  My second problem is how to seperate
the downpipe/cat from the back exhaust tubing?  The downpipe is seperated
from the manifold, but i can't remove it until i figure out how to seperate
that whole bit from the rest of the tubing.  i have the clamp loosened off,
and it moves around freely, but i just can't seperate them..

Any help appreciated.

        TIA again,
