Driveshaft help!

I am having a delimma with my 67 LWB chevy. Several months ago my built turbo 350 went south. I finally found me another tranny but this time its a TH400. Now in total length its a half inch longer than my 350 but thats not really the issue. My problem is that the one piece driveshaft i was using is now too long to use with a 400 slip yoke. All my other 2 piece shafts are all wrong too! The 400 yokes I have are 8 inches or so long and only 2.5-3 inches or so actually slide into the tranny and thats all the way in, leaving a considerable amount outside the tranny and no room to move either. I have a new yoke waiting for me at the parts store in town but its way too long also. Money is a big issue for me so its not as simple as just have a new shaft made. I need to know what you all are running for drive shafts and tranny yokes on your long bed 2wd 1/2 ton with a 400turbo. By the way my engine is in the stock v8 location, and the 400 is short tail shaft. Let me hear from ya cause this is driving me nuts.
