Front band adjustment along with long tube headers

My 68 came with long tube TTI headers on the 360. Prior owner never installed a kickdown lever or cable. So I am finishing up Lokar kickdown cable install and a fluid change.

I don't see any room to get to the nut to loose the adjustment and for sure no room to use a torque wrench. My only guess would be to drop the transmission crossmember and angle down the transmission.

What are you guys with long tube headers doing for band adjustments?
