Should be the same length. U-joints may be a different size.

I used a 6-speed LS1 driveshaft in my 89 Firebird and it was a direct fit. It was ever so slightly longer or shorter but not a big deal.

Re: Quick driveshaft ?
The shaft will be shorter by almost an inch, but works fine and is a common swap. I have one in my 92 with a t5
