closest in length is the 9" tailshaft (the turbo 350 had 3 different ones) that puts you within 1/16"

I am assuming your going to race the car, so I would have a new driveshaft made it's not that expensive

depends on if someone local can do it, I have had them made for $100 including balancing, and seen up to $500 for ordering from out of the area
