Default Opening The Teapot

Trying to open up the spare Holley teapot carburetor that was on my 53 Merc parts car. Probably for the first time ever. Is there some secret skill or technique to remove that top bolt, the one the air cleaner hold down threads into? Without twisting it off? This one is so tight I don't dare try any harder as I know it will twist off. Soaking in penetrating oil right now. The manual makes it sound easy. http://www.oldcarmanualproject.com/m...901195222.html
