You shouldn't have to remove the radiator but it might make the whole job easier. If you have installed a fan shroud you will need to remove it though to get access to the clutch fan.

You may want to consider taking a look at the Timing chain and gears since you will have a major part out of the way to make access easier. When was the last time the timing seals and chain were serviced?

 

from the looks of it never. i bought the car 3 years ago and just started doing work on it. that is a good call on checking the timing seals and chains. i think i might also have the radiator check as well.
