tranny/t-case lengths

[possum70]

What is the difference in the length of a TH350/NP203 and a '05 4L60E/NP241c?
I'm trying to figure out if I need new driveshafts when I get my swap ready?

does anyone know of a site that has instructions on how to shorten or lengthen a driveshaft? I have a lathe. Just wondering about the setup and all.

Afaik, there's no secret science, just cut one of the yokes off at the weld and pull the yoke out. There's a roughly 1/2" long pilot on the yoke inside the tube so don't cut deeper than the weld. When you put it back together I'd line the yokes up in phase.
