Short Drive Shaft

I have a kit car with Chevette mechanicals. In process of swapping engine. Putting in GM 60 degree V6 with 5 speed. In appears that the trans mount is in the same place as the 4 speed being replaced. So original 7 inch drive shaft could be used. But this locates engine pretty far forward. I would like to move trans mount rearwards 2 inches. Then shortened drive shaft would be 5 inches. What do I need to be aware of with the torque tube rear end? Any critical angles or issues? Thanks.
