YA MONG!!! there is 100% no need to cut out the top radiator support bracket, the engine will lift out over it with a little forthought and some common sense.... trust me, done this about 4 times now.

Make sure you take from the jap AE86 the hydraulic lines from the clutch master to the clutch slave cylinder.
