Default Tailshaft for AU with T56

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone with an AU XR8/T series that's had a T56 conversion could measure the tailshaft length for me please? I'm looking to get a carbon shaft out of the states (suprisingly cheap) for a T56 conversion and they need to know the length as they don't have something to measure over there.

I'd be after dimension W (preferrably) or X from the diagram below, image from their website.



I have asked a particular organisation who supply conversion kits but they have refused to give me the details, presumably because they want me to buy their steel two piece shaft.
