It depends on who's billet shaft you purchase.
Truthfully, if you are not going to use a trans brake and have at least 500 HP I would not be concerned.
I did not install one in MM until 2004.
Never did break one, just twisted the spines.

The only time I seen one get twisted, is
when I let my little brother borrow the car.

Well, somehow he got it to go into reverse
on the freeway. It still worked ok. But when
I pulled it out, the converter was stuck.
Had to pry it out with a large crowbar. Oop's.
