Default CV Joint operating angle
I have a set of chrome moly 6 ball & cage inner/outer joints and 300m axles etc built to handle over 600bhp at the wheels!! I have just checked the angle of the axles and they are around 6 degrees uppermost at the wheel,
I was sort of hoping the angle was less, anyone have any tips on cv joint angulation, the inner cv joint will hit the top suspension arm if I raise the diff so I am stuck with this angle!

Maybe the only issue I will have will be a slight hp loss at high speeds?
