It won't fit directly but you can buy one of these adaptors from Tony Betts (and elsewhere probably) for £25. Then it'll fit when shortened.

As for the length it's not that critical since the splines allow for some variation. I put the prop in the lathe and machined out the weld holding the UJ forging, cut it down and welded it back together. It's been fine for 25 years and at road speeds up to 80.
You can, of course, buy a whole new shaft that avoids the adaptor but when I just looked they were out of stock.
