CV shafts are no problem at all. You must not have built anything custom.
I've made them before on other projects.
Take one apart and you'll see they are just splined axles that can be shortened and resplined just like anything else.

Very few companies, that I'm aware of, do custom CV shaft builds, and they are very expensive.

I think this is a bigger issue than the engine size, transverse or inline, upside down or purple, before you do anything, address how you will handle the CV shafts.
