count the splines on the end of the shaft....
is there 22 splines?

also, you need to use a mk2 cav 1.6(circa 88) inner cv to fit the shaft, and gearbox..

probably custom shafts...

will need to buy the same, as the hubs will be different to accept them too..
gte shafts wont work, unless your revert back to nova hubs on it
