This weekend we pulled all the parts we needed for a 5 speed swap off an 86-87 eta. Is there any major differences in the flexdisk and drive shaft ends that I need to be aware of before I order the rest of the parts I need to complete the swap?

What car are you putting them onto?
Starting in 06/86 to 08/87 ETA driveshafts and guibos/flexdiscs are bigger. To know for sure plug the vin into realoem. If you are using everything from it then it should line up. The transmission output flange is slightly different (holes are wider apart). But if you are using the driveshaft/guibo/tranny then it will be fine. IIRC the only thing that may not line up is the center support bearing depending on what car you are putting it onto, then you'll need the one for that car.
The brake pedal sensor may also be different (was on mine) than the one that was on the old pedals, you can swap the sensors (threaded/not threaded) or use connectors to put the wires onto the switch that was on the 87's pedal box.
