Overall Assessment

Customers consistently praised the product's high-quality construction, practicality, and competitive price. They appreciated its excellent fit and functionality in various applications like IMCA sport mod, dirt modified cars, and b mod race cars. Customers highlighted its durability, noting that the driveshaft stands up well to tough conditions both on the streets and at the track. Some even recommended it for street or race use. The product was praised for being value-priced and well-made. However, some pointed out its unsuitability for drag racing due to its strength limitations in such conditions and a few customers reported balance issues. Nevertheless, the product is popular and highly recommended within the racing community.

Not for Drag racing

I was building a hot rod for street, and was pleased to find a Speedway driveshaft exactly the length I needed. I believe the description said primarily intended for circle track racing, so I figured it'd be plenty strong. I had 1100 street miles on it, worked great, did not even need a balance. Then yesterday I took it drag racing at a local track. Street tires. Second pass, twisted that driveshaft in two like a piece of taffy. Obviously it was not intended to take the shock of drag racing. That is not a complaint. I took a shot because of the price and the compact size. Speedway's description was fair and truthful. This is just a headsup that if you intend to even occasionally dragrace, a heavier duty driveshaft would be advised.

Disapointed

I purchased a speedway driveshaft for use in a dirt modified racecar. This shaft came to me bent. An unusable condition that cant be seen to the naked eye, but shows up at the track where there is nothing a person can do about it. The cost to get it corrected was as much as the driveshaft. Your catalog says nothing about recomending balancing or even that these shafts are NOT balanced.

Just what i needed for my 1967 Ford transmission swap. I went from a 3 speed manual to a 1978 pickup 3 speed overdrive trans. I pull a boat so I need the lower rear gear (3.50 with yukon limited slip) and it is nice to have overdrive when not hauling the boat. Quick delivery, very happy

I want to install this in a rat rod with a t5 3speed manual and a 200 ford 6. The length from the end of tail shaft to the flat of the pinion is 34 3/8 inches. Which length is best for this application. I'm thinking the 31.5 would be okay.
