Anyone know of a place that lenghtens driveshafts?

We are doing a custom 72 Ford Fairmont wagon w/ a 302 motor, it had a straight 6 before, we swapped to a 8.8 rear also, but the driveshaft from the v8 mustang is too short, know a good shop ? How much? Thanks!

I get my work done at a local shop, Orange County Drivelines, they've never done me wrong. Recently built me a 3.5" aluminum driveline with 1350's at both ends and a lifetime warranty for a reasonable price.
