Can anybody tell me how long the driveshaft needs to be for a 351W Toploader 4 speed in a 1965 Mustang Fastback. I can get a good deal on an aluminum shaft but it's 50" long. When I checked Mustangs plus for aluminum shafts I see they have 50, 521, 54". I have 3 Hrs to decide. HELP. Thanks, Ernie

MM's is 50 inches Ernie. The top loader with a 351 will wind up in the same spot as a 289/302 C-4.
