When removing stock exhaust/ installing new exhaust, does the rad have to come out?

Here's the instructions for installing Brock's Gen III StreetSmart system. The instructions are pretty much applicable to most exhaust systems. I did not have to remove the radiator.

Thanks for the info. I'll try it that way for sure. The less I take off the better, less chances of me screwing something up!

It does not have to come off but you need to take the bottom bolt off so it can swing up. By the time I did this I just said the heck with it and took it off. It made the headers sooooo much easier to remove.

There are two bolts on the bottom. Remove them, and it allows the radiator to swing out to make it easier to get to the headers.
