28spline/33spline cv driveshaft

[Mike]

I need a driveshaft about 18" long with 28 spline(for 930cv) on one end and 33spline(for 100mm cv) on the other end. Is such a shaft available off the shelf or does it have to be custom made? I know it doesn't make sense but I am very cramped for room on the outboard end and will be putting out only 240ft/lbs so I think a 100mm cv would survive.
Thanks
Mike

Have you had a look at VW Transporter Type 2 drive shafts?

I'm running them on the Dax and they are the same bolt circle as the Ford units. (My car runs 256hp from the dyno readout)

Web sites like Cool Air, EMPi etc do a lot of after market units for not a lot of money. (Or look for an aircooled VW shop in your area)

From memory the shaft length is aboit 50cm so pretty close to what you are after

Mike I think you will find 99% of shafts run the same inner outer splines.
Sounds like a custom job to me.

Try Taylor Race Engineering did my axles. Hewland Gearbox | Jerico Transmissions | Quaife Transmission | Tilton Clutch | Racing Driveline. They did my setup. Highly recommended.
