yeah, its a modified CA van axle!
as far as i know its a modified CA van diff unit with one off halfshalfts - as previously stated its stronger than a magnum axle, but rare as hell so if you do manage to break it....
personally for big power the 4HA axle (scimitar SE5a) is the way to go, Jag powerlok LSDs fit in em - heavy yes, but fairly cheap and plentifull with loads of ratios available - I remember reading somewhere that ian jemison engineering have a jig to weld on the neccesary brackets to convert to viva fitment (think they did this for Dave Ruddock's rally viva)
