Default 5 Speed Engine R&R

I need to R&R my motor for the second time in 12 months. Last time I removed the clutch pressure plate as part of the process.

Does anyone know if you can remove the engine with the clutch plate attached?

Sure would save a lot of headache!!

I think you can, but that you may need to remove the radiator, and put a plywood plate in front the the ac condenser as shown (I think) in the WSM. The hard part is getting the motor far enough forward that the stub shaft will clear the bell housing.
