Hi guys

In the last rally 2 other Porsche's (911's) went out because their CVs failed. My standard 914-4 ones have now lasted me the past 3 years, but I think I'm on borrowed time. Also, I checked the play and they're excessive, so they're on their way out that's for sure. I was wondering if anyone has experience of these:

I need them to put up with 200bhp/lbft engine and a whole load of abuse (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I think these will do nicely but thought I'd get a second opinion from here from anyone that's tried them.

Cheers

My brand new ones only lasted 3 events, but we do excessive things at launch for sure.

I went with the 944 turbo CV, but you need to change the output shaft on the 901 and a few other bits, but these will not break. Andy had a great posting going through the numbers of what you to do to swap them over. Just search for CV's and I think you will find the link.

If I remember right the output shaft is one from a old 911 (901) that has a different spline to match 944 turbo CV's. It also seems like I only changed the output shaft and the CV's, didn't have to change anything else, but maybe had to do a bit of machining on the stock drive shaft.
