Here's a picture of my stock driveshaft when I was making 288rwhp and cutting 2.0 or slower 60 foots at the track. heh..

One thing to think about is your transmission...A hard hitting 6-speed car should probably go with a strong steel or better driveshaft. I'd put a 3.5" aluminum driveshaft on most foot braked automatics though. I ended up getting a good deal on a 3.5" Denny's aluminum for my 6-speed and haven't had any problems so far.
Good luck!
