HA your funny......when I did a 4cy swap to 5.0 in my 92 ...bare in mind it was a 5 speed 4cyl car too...and the stock 4 cyl driveshaft had this huge counter balance weight on it ...also it had visably smaller joints and yokes .....your best bet is to use a 5.0 driveshaft as it's heavier duty and if you plan to beat on it...then it'll withstand the abuse more

True but with an auto they usually don't take that bad of a beating.
