Default Master cylinder bolts

So I have a 78 Corvette and I'm going to change the master cylinder but the bolts are stripped. Any ideas on how to get them off? There isnt much room to work with.

I removed mine today and took an old socket and drove it on even though it had been semi rounded. I think a small
air tool can get in to cut a notch in the nut to get a chisel in to hammer it loose if needed
