Default Guys in 11's or pulling sub 1.7 60's what DS?

What are you guys who are running 11's or pulling sub 1.7 60's what driveshaft are you guys using? I plan on using a stock steel LT1 for now and I was wondering if that would be sufficient for the above numbers?

I pulled consistent 1.5s with the stock aluminum shaft. I always worry about it though.

I just broke a stock steel DS on a 1.74 60ft. (Rear U-joint gave way)
I guess my luck sucks.
I'm switching to aluminum.
