Bob,
Some of the new no-drill loops have the tubing. They bolt between the transmission mount and transmission using a bracket. I am worried that they may change the pinion angle, but am considering one for my 66 (since I will be using slicks and it should be capable of a 12 second run).
The old universal loops used two L brackets on either side of the loop. Each bracket is held in place with four 3/8" bolts through the floor. The loop has some adjustment up and down between the brackets. I just don't feel like drilling 8 holes in the floor of the 66. So, I will probably give the no-drill loop a try. Jegs, Summit and OPG carry both kinds.
