what driveshaft will fit the stock rearend yoke?
will it need to be shortened?
or just change the u-joints on the stock and input yoke?

You'll need to get a driveshaft built. The stock driveshaft diameter is too small to fit a G.M. flange. Find a G.M. driveshaft thats long enough and get the stock Luv flange mated to it. Find a driveline shop and ask them how they want you to measure the length of the driveshaft that they'll build. This will only last for a while because the stock rear end will eventually fail from the load put to it from the bigger powerplant. Keep an eye on the stock rear u-joint too because it about half the size of the G.M. unit.

the s-10 axle is basically a direct bolt in and then a 2nd generation camaro driveshaft and you should be all set
