I like to take the front end off for easier access to things on the front of the engine, when you don't need to flush the cooling system and such. You could make it come off with a couple of pins, so it would be uber quick on the track to do some fixin' without absolutely having to take the radiator off every time. But, when you want to, its just a bolt or two, and a couple hoses to do so.
preference though!
Its a ford 9" e30 with a borg warner turbo and e85 and a t56, I bet you can find it on google
