I believe the Driveshaft shop does stage 2 axles for the CEGers, so maybe look over there or give DSS a call yourself.

sweet cause just found a store that sells stage two drive shafts for 247.54 each.
ultrarev.com says they are rated up to 400hp but they are almost a hundred dollars more
here is the web site if any has questions and the part numbers to the drive shats

Part# RA8246L2/RA8244L2
Ran 400+ through my MTX-75 for 2 years before selling it. Then the new owner's had it for another year. No issues. Don't drive like a dumba$$, and it won't break.
Driveshaft Shop's axles are overpriced pieces of crap from the two pairs I've seen. One set sheared right off at the spline, the other broke at the joint. These were both with N/A 3Ls, too.
Get a set of $90 lifetime-warranty remans from Advance Auto. When they break (which they won't unless you drive like a dumba$$), get another set for free. Easy.
