Driveshaft reviews
I'm in the market for new driveshaft. I have a 2011 mustang gt making 600whp and 505ftlbs. It's a m6. I'm looking at American muscle and shaftmaster right now. Then I also have a shop that did my tuning that has a place custom make them. So I'm trying to get some advice on the route to go.

When selecting a driveshaft for your Mustang GT, you want one that has been made to the highest standards for peace of mind. This aluminum driveshaft has been balanced using Schenck military grade equipment to guarantee vibration-free performance. Unlike other designs which use an adapter - causing vibration and even failure - this driveshaft features a completely new pinion flange for superior durability and performance. It features 1330 series U-joints and is a solid, 1 piece design made with 4" Alcoa certified 6061 aluminum tubing.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions or need some assistance.

It sounds like you have 2 really good options. I can't speak for the custom driveshaft, but I can definitely give you some information on ours! First, we've had this driveshaft on a few of our project cars, our 2011 GT running low 10's with a big nitrous hit and the other running a Hellion single turbo kit. This should give you some state of mind that they're very strong and well built, while still shedding 20 pounds from your rotating mass!

My main thing is I don't want to spend 7 to 800 and it vibrate or be cheaply made. Plus changing the pinion flange has me slightly worried. It looks fairly simple but I just haven't don't it before.

Dynatech now comes with its own alum flange. Saving an add pound of weight. Some people say to be wary of DS that use an adapter which can cause noise and/or vibration.
