I know this has nothing directly to do with VNs but need some commodore related advice, i am putting an Ecotech into my VH and need to know about the tail shaft and whether i can use the front half of the VS and rear of the VH?if so is there any shortening or anything needed to make it go? or is there another way?

For length, it will be very similar. Remember that the VNs used the VB-L floorpan, and added width to the sides and ends for more interior space. So long as it doesn't require you to cut anything, see if it'll just bolt up. If not, ask a driveshaft specialist to make it fit. It would be a good idea to get the shaft balanced too. It extends the life of the uni joints and CV joint, and will dramtically reduce the vibration coming from what might potentially be an unbalanced shaft

I have been told that you can use the front of the VS and rear of the VH without any mods so that is good news as it will only cost for a new centre bearing and unis aswell as a balance instead of shortening aswell and the mounts all line up also, so BRING ON THE SKIDS!!!!

Well done, no serious mods necessary. Aren't you glad you own a Holden, a company whom love universal tooling. IF it had been a Nissan for example, there's a good chance you'd have Buckley's of making that kind of adaptation without some kind of modification.
