4th Gen Driveshaft Fit?

Will an aluminum driveshaft out of a 4th gen Camaro or Firebird fit our 3rd gens with the 700R4 auto? Thanks for the info..

yes because on my 91 which was a v-6 car to begin with the drivshaft from the tpi drivetrain I used was the same. I used the v-6 shaft untill I got the ls1 shaft.
