So how far in does it go until it bottoms out? If it bottoms out before hitting the powdercoated section you're good. Dennys Driveshafts wants 3/4" for forward movement, so if the driveshaft is installed and car at ride height, if the powdercoated area is 1" or more back from the seal you're good.

Of course you can always sand some coating off to give yourself more room if needed. Tape off the clean part of the yoke and touch up the end of the powdercoating with matching paint, nobody will notice.

How much slip travel should I have?

In most applications the minimum is 3/4 inch and more than 1 inch is not necessary. This is measured with the rear suspension supported on safety stands or with the rear end on the ground.
