Stock drive shaft

What are the limits of it? M6 car slick and dumps 3.73 gear 3500 race weight.
Car should have about 340 rwhp, stock LS6 with headers and duals. Where can I get a replacement thats cheap, $300?
Thanks
Jay

I am running a Moser 9 with the big 1350 joints, should be the same as your 12 bolt. PM me if you are interested in it. Was about $500 new from Bob at EPP, I will take allot less.

Need to fix the sig. That car is long gone. Have an 00 roller coming next week that will have a 9 in it, either will be bought used or built. This car will also be an M6 on slicks leaving with a 6K dump. 500hp on spay and it will break, oh well

when I installed my 9" I looked at my stock DS and it was twisted about 1/2". That was with stock motor and no slicks, just street tires. I replaced it with a fabbed steel one.
