		Quick question, if i put an xud9 lump in a 205 1.8d inca, will the 1.8 shafts fit in the 1.9 gearbox? Ive heard the 1.8td ones would be okay but not sure about the straight d. 
Any advice would be great

		I belive you have to swap the diff so you can use the 205 shafts, or put the 306 joints on the 205 shafts either or and your good to go.

		swap the 205 diff into the 1.9 box and away you go on the 205 shafts, same shafts as the turbo.

		Drivers side should be fine.
Passenger side you can either a) swap the diff and use a standard shaft or b) fit a 306 inner cv to the 205 shaft and run that
