Default TH350 Conversion - DS Question

Im doing a TH350 conversion on my LT1 car, will the stock driveshaft work if I use the 9in tailshaft version and have a M12-bolt?

Ive read alot that it will work with a stock style rearend, but cant find anything about the aftermarket rearends.

Not sure, but I do know you will have to change u-joints to make it work with a moser 12 bolt

It will work good enough to drive it, but when you hammer it there is too much flex. It doesnt go into the tailshaft enough. I broke 2 tailshafts learning the hardway. I had Denny's make a custom fit 3.5" aluminum. It does cost though.
