I know a place that makes them, but will have to see what you exactly you need. They made a few for a couple of boat manufacturers.

My engines are moved forward about 18" and I have Stellings Ext Boxes. It was that way when I bought it and was done that way when built new.
They just have a short driveshaft going from the box to the engine.

I have had them made for a 12" extension. We had a local machine shop do it. He took a standard input shaft and welded it. We have raced it for 9 years with no problem at all.
