Who did you end up getting the shaft made by? I was talking to DSS and the prices are good if the bolt patterns are the same as stuff they have or gets pretty expensive for custom work.

Mine was custom as the V12 transmission is slightly longer than the 55. I modified my original drive shaft had to be shortened. I ended going with a very good machinist (Alphie, VRP) out in long island. He made me one out of Chrome molly for half the price.

So are you still using the stock flex discs and center support bearing?

Everything is strong enough, just not the actual drive shaft itself. This one I will get paid, If it bends.
