yes you pull the radiator and shrod. take either front wheel off. disconnect the c-beam. and motor mounts. then side the hoist in the side and pull it out. (you might need 1 or 2 more people to guide the motor. this is hard to do, you will want to be pasient.
wait till u put it back in good luck

Another reason to pull the radiator is so you can take it in and have it cleaned and pressure tested. It would be a shame to lose a 'new' engine because of a bad radiator. You also get it out of the way if you are going to clean/paint under the hood.
