Help with CPS

Hey guys, hoping this will be a quick and short thread. Have my ***** under the knife at the moment and the car will turn but not start. I am trying to replace the CPS but looking for some insight into how to get it out.

What tricks have worked for you guys? I have zero idea as to how anyone has fit a 10" extension behind the driver head and firewall. I've tried to get to the bolt for about an hour, but either the extension is too big or the 3/8" drive is too big to undo the bolt properly?

Any thoughts? Need to get this car moving again, thanks!

have you seen this thread? It has pics to make sure you are on the CPS, my first time I was trying to get the larger wire that connects to the side of the bellhousing...

Slow Ones!
imagine your finger tips have eyes. It's mostly by feel here.
