Conversion shafts & hubs from Chris Astley motorsport.

Well worth going for the 'equal length' shaft setup which borrows an idea from Cav & Calibra 16v's where there is a central bearing bracket bolted onto the rear of the engine block which supports the long shaft & thus effectively makes it shorter so both shafts are nearer the same length & helps reduce torque steer.

Another issue suffered on Novas is that with the proper shafts, the hubs are weakened to fit in a Nova steering knuckle, so it's worth going to Grp-A spec outer hub/bearings esp with a C20LET.

i am currently using the STANDARD nova setup with conversion inner cvs. im only using these to see how long they last. been on the car for 3 months now with no problems. i do have the proper shafts to use when they fail. im on the f20 right enough.
