Default Need help with header!!!!

I have a b16 in my crx and I cant get the stock manifold off. It stops at the crossmember and will not go any further....so I tried seperating the header and that wont work either...the 3 bolts are seized pretty damn bad....hit it with a torch for a few minutes, sprayed some wd40 on it....nothing is working....I am using a 14mm wrench on the bolts and I just keep bending the nut and now the 14 mm wont even do anything...

Does anyone have suggestions or anything cause im stuck and I need to get this off ASAP. Thanks

I was thinking of getting an aftermarkert header. Didn't know how hard it would be to install with the motor still in. Sounds tough.
