carbon shafts are available for the f-bodys. they are custom made to order at your specific length. carbon is a great material, but due to the weight of these cars we really don't recommend the carbon shafts, especially in the higher powered cars.
what about in a mostly stock 2002 ls1. carbon shaft, better then stock or not?

I just snapped a 3.5" aluminum drive shaft - I'd recommend a steel unit for sure.

I talked to Eric at Midwest Chassis at i got the Strange Steel d/s with 1350 u-joints. I received it thrusday and had it on by friday. At first i thought i messed up the input shaft because the end from the trans. didnt slide out, i then found out then it just needed a little kick to get it out. Now its an shes running like a champ!

Thanx again Eric!
