Sorry but its inevetable. ET Streets are gonna turn your 10 bolt into shrapnel! Ive had NOTHING but problems with my 10 bolt and I only have boltons.
Good luck man. Let us know what your times are if you make it all the way down the track.

I think it would be ok for a while, autos are a lot easier on the rear than six speeds.
I think if you take it easy on it it should last.
I sheared every tooth off my ring gear except for 4 teethwith 4.10s, but I think with an auto you can make it last for a while, not that it couldnt go at any second, but it has a chance with lasting.

"IF" he takes it easy
ET STREETS + 10 bolt =

yeah. the Autos are WAY gentler on the rear but ET Streets with a 383 is trouble, period. I hope it last you forever so you dont have to be the next victim of GMs shitty rear. I know we all have suffered in some way because of that engineering decision. Way to go Chevy.......
