i like to come off the master down to just below outside side of frame rail on drivers side and put a T in, then go over to pass side.

It's custom just keep your plans in mind. Like steering shafts, headers, oil pans, control arms, brake hose length. Buy a good bender and flare setup.

How important is it to put the loops in like the factory did? I see that some people dont?

ehh, I've never worried too much about the loops, although it also helps reduce the lines from braking or cracking when the body flexes.

I agree.And with solid bushings there should be no flex at all.
