The least amount of joints the better, but too many variables to say what will work for you, engine and column placement as well as headers or manifolds you are using. I have a u-joint at the column and one at rack with no need for a heim. I used a borgeson telescoping steering shaft on mine, easy to install and allows a little movement.
