My concern is these things will just twist off with too many torks then
I'll be really screwed. I need to figure out some way to get some
penetrant in there to try to loosen them up then I can go at them with
the air wrench.

That would probably just twist them off. hammering on it is the same
effect as a impact wrench, ala the indispensable hand impact wrench
and #3 phillips bit you HAD to have to work on a hondog MC with its
cheap soft bolts.
I don't think a normal 1/2" impact wrench that does 80-100 ft-lb would
ever get them loose. Not a big enough hammer...
2 lb did get its attention, over enough time.... beating on the
breaker bar.

I've got a 48" bar for that sort of thing.

I finally got 10 out by hammering on the end
of the breaker bar with a 2 lb blacksmith hammer for probably 5-10 min
each bolt. (homemade impact wrench)
