Yes. You will need to unhook the front mounts & raise the engine. Also take off the flywheel cover.

Do you have to loosen the bolts on the transmission also?

I'm trying to learn anything I can on the 250 L6, so I'll just be reading posts.

Thanks,

It's been a long time since I have done one. I don't think I did but it wouldn't hurt any. Sometimes you have to turn the over as the counterbalance on the front of the crank may be down & interfere. If you have the facilities & don't have a lot of assesories on the engine it is better to pull the engine.

I didn't have to loosen the trans on mine but I did have to lift the front fairly high I probably should have I guess almost 50 year old rubber helped
