So i have heard that to swap the motor, it has to be pulled out from the bottom how true is this? or can I pull it from the top with a picker?

Ive seen it done from the top, bottom and front. its all preference.

Going though the top and bottom = will allow you to NOT take out the rad+condenser...but how hard is it to take it out?? 4 bolts??

Going through the bottom = you will have to remove the subframe = dropping suspension or from the LCA. Can be a bit tricky lining up everything.

Going through the front = taking off bumper+ rad support+ rad+condenser + headlights

So you choose which way
