Check out an 80's era Monte Carlo driveshaft.

The Currie SYE I used to have had a flange-type CV
yoke.  4-bolt pattern, about 3" apart?  I made a
driveshaft out of a Bronco front CV shaft, with
the "normal"-style CV yoke replaced with a flange-
type yoke from an 80's Monte Carlo.  All 1310 joints,
and the MC flange (with the CV ball) fit right into
the Bronco H-block.  You could also use the whole
Monte Carlo CV joint, and have the shaft retubed or
cut down to size, maybe?
