Default How to know if driveshaft too long for t5 swap?

I've searched this topic with no luck. I've completed the swap and need to know if my old c4 driveshaft will work. I've got the driveshaft mounted in the car. There is about 3/8" of yoke showing between the shaft seal and yoke joint. I can push the driveshaft into the transmission another 3/4" or so and it does not seem to bottom out, but the seal is scrunched a bit. How do I know if the yoke is bottomed out in the tranny? will it hit something hard? I don't want to push it too far in for fear of ruinning something? Is the 3/8" of yoke showing enough? First time doing this, so any tips are appreciated. Thanks.
