Axle, 914 V8 Axle Upgrade Options

[vipergman]

I'm putting in a 327 chev into the old 914 and would like to upgrade the Axles and CV joints. I had some info on this but cannot locate it. I seem to remember using Bus axles and 930 CV joints, or was it all Buss axle/cv?
Can anybody come the the rescue? A friend with a 914 v8 went through many CV's and I want to do it right the first time.

so enjoy the power with out the shock and awe of the burn outs and hard launches.

i've got a V-8 and don't have the axles upgraded. Unless you plan on smokin the tires ALOT i don't think you need to upgrade from stock.

And if you do plan on smokin (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif) the tires you better have a garage full of Trannys or upgrade to a 915

Just give them a head start off the line. you'll still pass them before you get out of third gear (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
