I've heard good things about the Power House driveshaft. It's one I plan on upgrading to. You can purchase it on their website for $520. As for the governor, you can purchase a tuner to clear it. I haven't topped mine out yet but I've heard mostly it's at about 114-116.

the gov is still on but I did know that it had to be gone to get over 115. any recommendations on shaft Sally?

At least it's not like most Chevys that top out at 90 or so.

The aluminum driveshaft is a great upgrade. I had bad vibration on the highway but once I put my 4" Shaftmasters (www.shaftmasters.com - check them out, great price) no vibration and the car definitely accelerates better. The difference is amazing compared to the heavy stock driveshaft.

Ok so ShaftMaster it is...but, what is the difference between the 3.5 and the 4? I see the rpm rating on the 3.5 is higher than the 4 but other than that??? are they both just as easy to install??? use the same parts??? ect...
