Default Fbody w/auto stock driveshaft length?

I'm doing a 5.3/4L60E swap into my 87 Monte Carlo, and my stock driveshaft needs to be shortened significantly. However, I've noticed a lot of F-body driveshafts in the local junkyard, and was curious as to whether or not they'd fit. Anyone know off-hand what the length of, say a '93 & up Fbody driveshaft is? I'm looking for joint-to-joint length, on-center of the caps. Thanks in advance!!

Awesome, thanks! Looks like the F-body shaft is quite a bit shorter than I thought. I measured out my setup, and I'm looking for 46.75"
