Not necessarily I will go into further detail as it is more of a heat exchanger than a radiator ( usually aluminum plate type with cooling fins not your car air type) they are mounted in the tunnel or to the bottom of the running boards and require snow passing over them to cool the engine...... with a few exceptions most liquid cooled sleds have been designed this way for the last 30 or so years
