How to remove this bolt??

I have a Vortech installed on my 98, sadly one of the belts died on me and cannot get the 4th bolt that holds the SC to the bracket loose because there is no space between to insert the ratchet.

Can someone tell me what they've done to get arround this in the past?

A picture can be found here: http://homepage.mac.com/luisrh/IMG_2869.jpg

Thanks in advance,
Luis

Well, it looks like...

Maybe a offset box wrench would do the trick...

Thanks, will give it a try and see ;-)
I know this may sound dumb to many of the experts here, but I just want to fix this myself since don't want to haul the car to the mech, plus the additional cost (last time I was charged over $1,000 to do this!)

Regards,
Luis
