Default Is this normal

I just but a 9 inch in my car with 4.11 gears. The drive shaft has almost half a rotation of play in it before the rear moves and when i engage or disengage the clutch i am getting a clanking from the rear

I just went over this with another member, and Detroit says that in considered normal. They even mention it in their instructions. They say I think 1/8th to 1/4 turn.

I had a car with one in it and never noticed it being that bad. But, maybe they changed their tolerances, dont know. The last guy said his was very noisy coast to drive.
