Do you guys have any tips, I only have the last 3 exhaust valves left and I'm finished but I've been stuck on this one for the past 30 min trying to loosen it

I'm using a 3/8s deep socket and its worked well for all the other nuts so far...
sounds like you've rounded off the nut already.

are you using a 6 or 12 pt socket? impact wrench if you have one with a 6 pt socket. plus are you using a 3/8" drive socket or an actual 3/8" socket? If so, why are you not using metric sockets?

btw, you've posted in the pregen section... you have new gen correct?
