Do all these shafts come with an "adapter plate?" I called the company and the techs are not in today and the sales guy didn't know. Just want to make sure it's not a "universal" type of driveline or something

Why replace the driveshaft? The stocker is awesome. Mike Davis spent about $500,000 on his World Challenge car with Ford GT suspension, 6.0l 4v motor from Huffaker, but kept the stock driveshaft. It's good enough for me.

Because I've "seen" a before and after dyno with only a driveshaft (30 minutes) swap between and saw the car free up 8RWHP.

I believe you are correct,they all come with adapter plate, my Dad saw a big gain with replacing the stock driveshaft to the one piece driveshaft on his 07 GT500.
