I can't seem to find any tool that will fit inside the holes for the He's and I don't have enough room to slide the bolt not the socket under .

Help !

Original style do not have a lip, which would be useless anyway. They are
just the right diameter to go through the tubes.

Same tool and setup I have for my heat exchangers. There are also a couple of 8mm nuts on each side (13mm wrench size). I use either a short 13mm wrench or flexible 13mm socket. I was actually able to torque these nuts this time with the flexible 13mm socket. I ran into the same problem with the triad as a previous poster. You have to assemble everything loose with the muffler and then tighten/torque the heat exchangers. I am surprised how much play there is side to side with the heat exchangers.
