10 bolt able to handle power?

Is there any way that just by switching out the parts in our 10-bolt stock rear ends, it could handle like a 12-bolt, or take the abuse?

It's not just the guts of a 10 bolt that are crap, the entire structure is marginal as well. As far as i know, based on what I've been told, there is not much that can be done to a 10 bolt to "beef it up" When you add HP, blowing up a 10 bolt is a matter of when not if. Now there are some freaks of nature out there but the odds are against it holding up to abuse.
