Re: Custom driveshafts
I tend to use Mark Williams for my race car driveshafts - solid, aluminum and carbon fiber. For my hot rods/street driven cars, I use a local shop. What trans yokes are you considering?

Re: Custom driveshafts
As a weekend warrior only making about 40X horsepower, I had a local shop make me a "performance" driveshaft; a tiny bit thicker wall and better quality steel with the HD u-joints (no zerg fitting). Its a tiny bit heavier than stock (like a pound) but holds the power great and was a bargain at only $130.

Re: Custom driveshafts
A 3rd for Mark Williams on the track
I built a mild El Camino show/driver and used Dynotech. They build a nicely priced $275 street driveshaft with free shipping., DOM steel, Chrome Molly shafts a little higher
