I got tired of trying to get at the valve cover bolts only to be able to turn them a little at a time with an Allen wrench.
So I cut a piece of Allen wrench found a ratchet wrench and pressed to sae nuts into the metric wrench. Drilled the nuts to the right size and using the vise pressed the Allen stub into the nuts. Just tried it and the next valve shim adjustment will be a lot more pleasant getting those pesky bolts out.
The ratchet can go ether way and so can the angle of the wrench.
