Default Custom Drive Shaft for 69 Camaro

Anyone have a good reputable shop they can recommend for a custom length drive shaft?

I went with a 3" nitrous ready shaft from Denny's Driveshaft.

But you can get a good driveline from most any local shop... which might be "easier" if you need it in a day or two.

The key to drivelines is the USE... critical speed etc - so the shop needs to know that you might be building a high horse - high speed (gears etc) driveline so they can select the tube correctly.

I went with a NASCAR driveshaft which is 4" diameter for use with my TKO 600 and it has the huge 1350 series front C6 yoke and I was able to give the length needed to the inch and they stocked for around $130.00. That was last year. His Ebay store is listed below and he currently has them for $94.00 shipped and they are in 1" increments. These things handle 1000 hp plus!!
