6L80E Output Question

[ProTouring442]

We have a 6L80E out of a 2010 Camaro, going into a '59 Impala. The Impala uses a 2-piece drive shaft with a support bearing.

What output yoke can I use to easily adapt to a fairly standard drive shaft? I figure I can put a slip joint in the back half, so I don't need to replace the tail shaft.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
Bill

Bill, I assume you have the output shaft with the 3 prongs on it if I'm not mistaken. It would be easier and cheaper to get a driveshaft made with the front end adapted with the 3 prong fitting and the tail end made for a u-joint. That's what most guys are doing. Either that, or as you said, change the tailshaft to a splined output. I have a 6L80 out of an 08 Escalade and it has the splined output shaft.
