Drive Shaft Question
 
I moved the engine forward by 2 3/4 inches on my 1970 350/350 Chevy c-10 swb and now have the task of finding a longer drive shaft. The current shaft is one piece, 55 inches in lenght, center of yoke to center of yoke. Did Chevrolet put a 58" one piece drive shaft in the 67-72 trucks or will I need to locate another drive shaft and have 3" welded in?

A 2003 chevy truck 1500 is 58'' a junkyard find. It worked on my 67
