This may sound silly but why do you want to go for a 1 piece tailshaft? Your current setup doesn't have a vibration does it? I have found this stems from worn or incorrectly fitted unis and/or an incorrectly phased tailshaft,a VL turbo tailsahft is phased 90 degrees out whereas the N/A tailshaft is in phase,another 2 possibilities is an incorrectly assembled CV joint and worn centre bearing or insulator.

again, it is NOT necessary in any way shape or form to fit a one piece tailshaft to any VL whatsoever. full stop. -jimmy
