another thought for strengthening 10 bolt....

Not to pee on your parade, but why bother with the 10-bolt? No matter how badass your housing or your posi you're still running that wimpy ring gear. These things work(ed) okay behind Monzas and S-10's, but they have no place behind an LS1! Hell, even my ZR2 came with an 8.5" 10-bolt - even that would've been a step in the right direction.

the weak link in the 10-bolt rear end is the tiny gears. They are just too weak to hold any power.
If you're going to beat on the rear end, you WILL put in a beefier rear end.
