Driveshaft/M50 swap

[Motorsports]

Hey guys i really wasnt planning on doing an M50 swap to my vert, but after driving my mechanics E30 and finding a M50 motor/tranny/ecu for a very good price i decided to go for it. My only question is. Is there a driveshaft that fits directly on. I've heard that the E30 M3 drievshaft works but am not sure about that. I tried searching on here before asking, and wasnt succesful. Help a brother out.

Yes, there are driveshafts that work. It depends what tranny you are using though. With the ZF 5-speed, I am using an e30m3 driveshaft.
On my last swap, with the e36Getrag, I used the '85 325 driveshaft. There are other options as well.

But will that one work with a M50 motor and tranny.
