The chasis mounts take the stress of the trans tail shaft, and they replace the stock stamped steal X brace with a must stronger peice. The lenght doesn't seem to have any adverse effect. Most of the high HP carrs mostly use the Spohn or Madman which are strong beefy units. The one that just replace the stock unit are make as strong in my opion.... The chasis moun units do have less ground clearance and are a tight fit with large exhaust, and can't be used with if you go duel exhaust.
Many of the vendors offer built in DS loops. Spohn also offers a torque arm with both front and back DS loops. But be careful if you happen to run a lingenfelter DS (3.5"). I did and the back DS loop cut into it badly!
I'm using an older sytle Spohn that was modified to clear my 4" exhaust. The one down side of the Spohn that most people don't like is that it hits hard even with normal driving ( well that is what it is designed to do ). It can also make the car shake pretty hard when you first start backing up. Allot more so if you have a manual trans.
