You're not tryin to torque the head down with the valve assembly still attached are you? Gotta ask...otherwise, i'd say just use a short extension, just long enough to do what ya gotta do. If it's off by a foot pound or so i don't really see it being that big of a deal.

if it leaks it might not be torking problem.
