I'd recomend a chromoly shaft if you're pushing the hp and drag race the car alot. I bought mine from Eric at Mid West Chassis. Has a great price on the Strange 3" chromo shafts with forged yoke, ends, and 1350 u-joints, in any length you need.
I've always leered away from the aluminum shafts (stock and aftermarket) and you couldn't pay me to use a carbon fiber ds.

Denny's Nitrous Ready shaft. Fantastic quality, probably the best reputation for driveshafts in cars under 2500hp. I have one, the fit and finish are is amazing!
Great price, great warranty, and even better service!

LOL,,, maybe you got the extra heavy iron version then.? I just weighed it, and a stock aluminum shaft is only 10.7 lbs total with yoke, and there is no way in hell my Strange shaft was twice that. Granted it was heavier, but no where near twice as much, plus the chromo shaft I got was longer. Next time I pull the Strange ds out, I'll weigh it on the same digital scale. I'm very curious now.

When I put it in last year, I could have swore it was at least twice as heavy.
