Default Driveshaft builder?

What company would you recommend to use for a new driveshaft? I'm needing to get one ordered. I'm sure there is a ton, I just want to see what others are using on 750ish and up rwhp cars.

Thanks
Allen

Turbo 400 to 1350 9". I did a quick measure and it's roughly 57.5"

It will not work, I have a 400 and 9" in mine now and had to switch. I have all my driveshafts built by a place in Cincinnati. The name of the place is Cincinnati driveline and hydrolics.

Local DS shop should be able to make one also. I bought mine for 150 less and had it in two days for 150 less than ordering one.

Get a local place to do it. The shop here builds mine out of 3.5" cm with 1350 joints. I supply the yoke and its $200 cash

I used Denny's drive shaft, they have a form that you fill out and they explain how to do it. They were fast and the shaft was spot on, they used a Mark Williams yolk too.

Thanks for the input guys. I called PST, Inland empire, Dennys(3weeks out, but Daniel was a great help), Mark Williams today. 3 of the 4 recommended a 4" aluminum good for way over 1000hp and the other 3.5" cm. HMMMMMMM. I need it in less than 2weeks.
