Default EFI Manifold Mounting Question

For anybody who has worked on an EFI induction module, how in the heck are you supposed to torque the manifold mounting screws? The dang screws look completely inaccessible to me. Then if you consider the manual says to install the air cleaner back-plate first, which make the screws even less accessible, then torque the manifold mounting screws, there no way in hell you can get a torque wrench in there. Hell I’m not sure if I could even get an right angle Allen wrench in that tight space. I suspect I have an intake leak or my IAC is bad, but before I take things apart I like to be sure I can things back together.
