No - Sorry I can't help you out there.

A car Muncie 4 speed would be a nice change in your little Blazer.

Can't you just use a regular shortbed driveshaft or your original and cut it down? I noticed that your planning on going a 700R4 so I was always under the impression that you'd have to cut the driveshaft anyway as the 700R4's are longer - or so I thought.

Your local driveshaft shop should be able to make you up a new driveshaft.
