Default Drive Shaft Questions

3 Drive Shaft Questions

1) Will a drive shaft that came out of a Saginaw fit a Muncie? I have a drive shaft that was used with the old Saginaw I have replaced with a Muncie and I am wondering if the output shaft will be compatible?
2) The Muncie and Engine sit +/- 1 inch further back (towards the rear wheel) then the engine/transmission was previously. Will the +/-1 inch render the drive shaft unusable?
3) Assuming 1 and 2 indicate that the driveshaft can be used will a drive shaft that is stock (at least appears to be) hold up the abuse a modified 455 will give it.

I realize these are broad questions and I haven’t tried to fit it yet. Just wanted to see if I could get the answers here prior to crawling under the car.

Thanks
