Default Prop shaft assembly balancing

I need to find a shop that can high speed (6500 redline) balance a 2001 Zo6 prop shaft assembly. This is a custom-extended shaft that was built for a 39 coupe project. I have called all the shops that were listed in a Google search without any luck. Thanks for your time

They're not in your neck of the woods, but I think if any shop can do what you need, its these guys:

http://www.carolinadriveline.com/

They're well respected in the offroad community for custom built and performance extended offroad driveshafts that can also be street driven.

I used to use Joint Clutch & Gear in Detroit on Telegraph just south of Joy Rd. when I lived up in Mi.
They would make any kind of propshaft you wanted and did balancing for any driveline part.
