For the intake plenum bolt, you need to use a 10mm "12-side" socket or box end wrench. I usually use a socket. You can't use a standard six-wall because it won't be able to grip all the "star" ends on the bolt.
For the strap, you might want to change out the terminal. I have multiple wires going into my terminals and changed them out for the generic side mounts. The reason why I did this is because they have two bolts that hold a bridge that "sandwiches" the main battery wire to the terminal. You can then attach ground straps or whatever to the terminal. That's how I setup my ground strap setup how $Rich$ described, and with it's extra provisions you should be able to add more.
If you go to your local Autozone or NAPA you'll see what I'm talking about in the battery terminal section. It looks something like this.

Setup works great on my car. I attached everything and then sealed it all up.
