The stock 8.6" will work as long as you run the g80 differential and one of those fancy aluminum covers.

That was some sarcasm right there.
Listen to the first guy and explain your goals and budget.
I wouldn't take a stock 10 bolt to 1200hp.

Chasing an HP number is like chasing the highschool cheerleader. You're never going to be happy.
Chase a trap speed or ET instead.
You'll be happier.
