Hy bucket, seeing as how nobody else has answered you, I'll give it a try, yes the whole front clip can be removed as a unit and it will give you the best view when removing the engine. If you're going to part it out anyway then you will already have the clip ready to go should anyone want it. There will be bolts at the top and bottom of the fenders, and there may be some in the door jamb as well, then probably under the rad support, then lift it off with your engine lift and set it aside, there will also be wiring and possibly other things that are connected between the cab and front clip, hope that helps.
