Will SC axles handle 360HP/290TQ or convert to 930?

Engine and tranny are done and have been told I may want to consider 930 axles. Anybody know or have experience on this conversion? Tranny is a 915 from I believe an 82SC, it was purchased off ebay before I bought the car. #s on tranny show 915/61 73C 1892. Any help would be great. Thanks. (I did search) still a bit confused on what is needed.

Made 360HP/290TQ on the engine dyno.

I'm not sure about the axles but I am interested in what it takes to make those 360hp

915 axles are fine. I put down 360 ft/lb of torque to the wheels on the Red Rocket. Axles were never a problem.

Depends on how you plan to use it... if its gonna be a track car I would opt for the 930 axles, theres a reason Porsche beefed them up for higher HP cars.

I'm really hoping that you dyno it on a chassis dyno after its installed so we can understand what type of drivetrain loss it sees. It should still be near 300whp I would bet but would love to know for sure.
Helluva a motor though! I know you have put in a lot of cash and a lot of time. i remember your post about the last setup and the low output so I'm happy for you, man!
