Default 4 speed conversion

Hey will a drive shaft from an auto work with a four speed? Is there anything else I should be concerned about?

Can you be a little more vague? Like what kind of auto and what kind of 4-speed? If you're planning on converting an auto over to a 4-speed the drive shaft is the least of your worries as any drive shaft shop can either shorten or lengthen a drive shaft for about $100.

The biggest problems will be the rear transmission mount and the clutch linkage.
