I know a few people with those driveshafts, ther pretty expensive but well  
worth it if you plan to put down some serious power.

Contact Pavel I think he still has his for sale.

take the universal joints off of your existing driveshaft(cut them off). Then go find a piece of tubular steel with adequate weight savings and the appropriate diameter(2.5" just like on your car exhaust…). cut to exact dimensions. Go to machinist who will cut the u-joints to fit snugly(a flange). weld. go to driveline place and have balanced. Done it …weight savings were large…1/3 the weight of stock 240 driveshaft.

In your dreams. 1.75". It gets even narrower in the various kinks throughout the exhaust.
