Small block middle head bolt access solution

I was able to buy a 4" deep socket 1/2 " drive from my local auto parts place with a stepped shoulder that slides right down in there but I feel your pain , if only there was a way to remove and re-torque some of the bolts on the outer row without pulling the headers and disconnecting the collector and standing the damn things on end with the car in the air to get at a couple of those eh !
