Stupid A-Body Rookie Question

haha, thanks guys. I've tried a few other sites for a-body stuff but have gotten contradicting answers. This place is great. I plan to have the drive shaft cut down to the new length. Even though the original 7 1/4 is wimpy, I will use it for now. The 318 is a stock std bore rebuilt with only a purple shaft cam, Edelbrock Performer intake, and 600 carb.... so it's pretty much wimpy too. Heck, it'll be a daily driver. When I come across a 8 1/4 or 8 3/4 then I will swap it out.
