Driveshafts

[Davey13]

What driveshafts/hubs will my 1.4 van have? Mk2.

Ive been reading on a nova forum that you can run small block hubs and shafts into a f20 gearbox if you fit mk2 cavalier inner cvs? Is this correct? Im planning on putting a saabengine in my mk2 and have been reading up on what driveshafts i can use. One of the combo's is f20 box with hubs n driveshafts from
A cavalier, cudi change inner cv's on my 1.4 shafts and use those?

Also if not, what models vauxhalls can i get an f20 gearbox, hubs and driveshafts from?

Re: Driveshafts

to be frank, the difference between big block and small block suspension struts is the size of the bearing and the hub, i.e their load baring ability.

if it were me i would just change it all to big block as you are over doubling the bhp and torque
