Default Converting an original to CV

We are using the Porsche 930 108 mm joints.

The 1/2 shafts are $1500 for the set, including bolts.

David Thank you,
The price is reasonable and those joints are the best. I was going to convert my stub shafts to 30 spline anyway, are the 30 spline shafts made with a 6 bolt flange? I am assuming that you also have a splined outer flange that will fit my hub carrier drive hub that is also 6 bolt? Will the Porsche CV clear the original circular hole in the frame and is there an issue with driving and torquing the CV mounting bolts on car? It is very difficult to get torque on the standard 4 bolt flange because of minimal clearance.
