That should be fine.
I have what looks to be the same thing on mine. I have this.

After you install them have a muffler shop weld them for strength. I had both sides of the front welded but not the bottom so water could drain out. In the rear I had the main bracket and the tab welded. That bolt hole in the tab does not serve much purpose since there is no way to put a nut on the bolt.

They don't look to have the right shape. Shouldn't they have a slight dip, from front to back to follow the bottom of the car and shouldn't they offset from where they attach to the front subframe and to where they attach to the rear subframe. I have a '70 but I think the '66 has a similiar floor pan. Are they being presented as fitting a Mustang? They could be modified to fit your '66.
