Does this brace need to come off to pull the transmission from my 96 Cobra? I can't see how the transmission will drop down for me to reach the top transmission bolts if I don't remove it since the oil pan is almost touching it.

Your pic didn't come through, but if I remember right there is a tubular brace that comes off just under/ahead of the bell housing. Starter needs to come out too...that is real fun. Get some long extensions and come in from the front for that "one" bolt.
Remove it and loosen the motor mounts, the engine will tilt back enough to reach the top bolts with some extensions and universal sockets. Or you can reach them be removing the upper and lower intake.
Alright, I got the transmission out. Woo hoo!
Nice!
