65Vart, I know this sounds strange, but the flange to flange is actually less
on an A body 8 3/4 than the '65 7 1/4. 8 3/4 is 51.40 and the 7 1/4 is 53.20.
I did this swap about 6 mo. ago in my 65 Valiant. Info from:

65Vart. Here are the EXACT measurements you need to shorten your
driveshaft. 7 1/4 is 10.09" centerline of axle shaft to centerline of
rear u-joint. 8 1/4 is 11.69. Shorten your d-shaft 1.6". Info. from

I spoke with Harold on Monday, Feb. 16th and received my headers today,
Monday, Feb. 23rd. One week from Arkansas to Idaho. Way to go Harold.
He has another set if anyone is interested.
