The plastic clips covering the GP can be ordered. Yeah...to get the last IM bolt its easiest to do from below with a couple of long extensions.

Go easy on the GP's. They have a habit of shearing off. The breaking point in destructive analysis that another member did was consistently 80-90nm when held in a vise.

I'd not go more than half that personally......i like the idea of the rat-ta-tat-tat action of an impact wrench if the torque can be dialed in appropriately low enough in addition to firing the engine up and getting it hot first, then using "Freeze" immediately before using the air wrench.

*edit* In addition to 3 consecutive days of application of PB Blaster or sim. As D911 said below, reaming is a must also.
