    I may need a new used drive shaft center bearing. That car started making some weird sounds last night while pressing the loud peddle. I will explore a bit more tomorrow.
    Just wandering if there are any on someones garage shelf's.

    I had this happen to my OBS once. I was hearing a loud whirring for a while. Then a loud clicking under throttle. After a lot of bs, the front joint of the driveshaft was cracked and the little roller bearings had fallen out. Found one at a local junkyard and put it in.

    If you do end up needing a driveshaft, I might have one. I don't remember if I threw it out or not.

    FYI, they're different length if the car is an auto or manual trans

    As of now the ujoints and center bearing seems OK. Now I have to start searching elsewhere.
