I measured the one I have here and it's 53.5" (+/- .25") How far is that off from the space between the diff input and transmission? (Using the skyline crossmember and mounts)

Don't take my word for it, but I believe that you "Measure the distance from the center of the U-joint on the diff to the center of the U-joint on the back of the transmission and--this part is important--subtract 1 inch to allow for driveline movement. "

No, you measure from the back of the diff flange to the transmission seal.

Whatever you say. They didn't have the Mckinney Mount kit so I imagine that it varies on a case to case basis.
