Default aluminum Driveshaft

Hey guys I've been trying to find an aluminum driveshaft for my 2001 V6, but I can't seem to find one. Does anyone know of any? thanks!

Of what I've read up on the subject, the standard ford racing drive shaft will work, but you'll have to swap the aluminum yoke for the stock yoke. heres a link

Now does it matter if my transmission is automatic or manual? Mine's an automatic.

The only difference between the manual and auto is the size of the input yoke on the tranny. Auto's have a larger shaft.......

So, does that mean it won't fit or that I'll have to make some sort of modification? Sorry haha, I'm kind of slow and not too knowledgeable about cars .
