Do you think 930s might be over-kill. I'm not going to drag race or off-road race, but at the same time I don't want to be breaking axles or
knuckles when I dump the clutch at the lights!

Hi
Price both ways and see if you really need to go to expense of 930 CVs. The good thing about running beetle cvs is that they will break before
something else does.
If you want to Kombi joints, find a good machine shop, get him make some flanges fo the bigger CVs and weld them on, buy some kombi CVs, have them
modified to fit on a bug shaft (counterbore the back of the CV centre).

Astro, for your base motor I would just use new beetle CV's. If you want to go larger then use Kombi, use 181 flanges on your gearbox and porsche
stub axles, or modified beetle.

we have BMW on our race car they bolted up to the kombi stubs and they were very cheep !!
we dont bust these any more !
we just kill the 9" diff ,rip the diff out from the cradle , blow the gear box up .twist the axels , blow tyres , cook the auto , rip the front off
,role it bend it .
And the toyota never stops GO the V8 !

what model BMW ?????? I thought the bmw was the same as the 930, which is larger than kombi. Are you saying we can have BMW CV"s without modifying
the Kombi flanges ?
Do they have better Angles ?

Just use the Kombi CVs and weld new flanges onto out put shaft and stub axle ... thats the easiest and cheapest method for what you need.
the 930s require new axles.
