Advantages of using an aluminum driveshaft (door car)?

dannyw · 08-21-2009, 11:40 AM

I've been online looking into ordering an aluminum drive shaft for my Chevy II Stocker. Any of you guys have any imput on this? Is there a noticable difference vs a regular shaft? Dynotech makes a nice looking piece for arround $400.00, but I wondered if it might be worth the coin.

Thanks!

Not legal unless car came with one from the factory.

I just read that elsewhere. Shoulda done a little more homework I suppose.

Thanks for the reply!
