I know there have been a ton of threads on driveshaft length but I cannot for the life of me find the proper length of a driveshaft for a 73 roadrunner with a 440, 727 and an 8 3/4 rear end. I'm getting ready to swap my new 440 into my 73 roadrunner with a 318 and I need to know what length shaft I need. I have no place closer than 3.5 hours away that can shorten my driveshaft but even if I did I still need to know how long it needs to be. I would really like to have the shaft ready so I can make the swap in a few days with minimal down time. If there is anybody out there that is willing to measure the shaft on their 73 roadrunner with a big block ,727 and 8 3/4 rear end it would be great as I am extremely sick of searching non stop for the proper length. I believe you are supposed to measure from center to center of the u joint caps. thank you for your time
