It looks like they are both 31 spline.. so I would think they both handle the same amount of power.

The only thing I see different is the CV joints have a couple different things;

Isotropic Surface Finish on CV’s and CV Internals
Upgraded Premium CV Fasteners

I used gforce on my gto and snapped 2 axles and 1 stub. Switched to Drive Shaft Shop and never had another issue.

Well that doesnt sound good! I will have to report back once I get to the track and see what this car will do since the upgrades! I did put a DSS driveshaft in it!

That’s the opposite of the Gen6 Camaro experiences from what I’ve read. Multiple failures on this board with DSS driveshafts and axles. I’ve yet to see a single GForce failure. I researched the heck out of this before making my purchases. The GForce stuff is handling over 800 WHP no problem in my case. I guess there can always be examples one way or the other.

Same in the Hellcat world. DSS has failed many times, GForce not so much however I've heard that GForce customer service sucks. I can't confirm that myself though.
