Driveshaft length on 442/Gran National?

[Camshaft]

I'm looking for a driveshaft to use with an 8.5 and a 200-4R. I've found a 52" shaft, supposedly from an '86 GN. Is this the right one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-Bui ... ingPayment

I measured the one from my 442 (originally equiped with 200-4R & 8.5").
Unless I ****ed up, from u-joint center to u-joint center it was 51.5" on mine. Anyone up for double-checking my work?
I'd have him double check his measurement, or it could end up being just a regular Regal shaft that they're trying to move by mentioning a GN...

yep, its just a regal shaft. looking at his other auctions, he has a 307 from an 86 regal too. definately not a GN

Should be 51.5" centre to centre as mentioned.
