Hi there. I have a 69 chevelle 396 SS . I got the car somewhat disassembled, there is no motor or trans in the car. It has a 12 bolt rear end and a 400 turbo. I was wonderering if anyone could tell me the centre distance of the u-joints for the driveshaft length. Thankyou ..........Lee.

Lee, I found this in a search. But I know I have seen a post on how to measure for the drive line on here.

"Bought a drive shaft out of a 69 SS chevelle the other day, its a turbo 400 car. and the drive shaft is 54.5 inches".
