I assume you have a stove bolt chevy in your plane as my Lycoming uses nuts to hold cylinders on. The head is part of the cylinder assembly.
You need to use caution using a crows foot as not to round off the nut. Lycoming wrenches are not that expensive.

Well done... that looks good!

As I'm sure Bill knows, many older Lyc's used Allen socket round headed cylinder nuts. I've got a set of wrenches for them.
