I believe it's an NHRA rule that they can be no further than 6 inches behind the tailshaft?

Within 6 inches of the front U-joint.
It's to keep the driveshaft from "pole vaulting" your car in the air in the event of front joint breakage.

I know about the loops but my question is about the mounting. Do the bolts go throught to the floor boards? Are they visible inside with cab WO carpet? Just trying tog et an idea where it mounts (with perspective of inside the cab).

The botls go right up through the floor. They end up underneath the seats, so even if you have no carpet, as long as you have seats you won't see them.
