10 Bolts - Discuss

Dont tell me Im an idiot. I am asking because I personally dont know the answer and I am curious.
The rears that are in F-Bodies from 82-02 are said to be terrible for withstanding even stock abuse. Which I believe from all the horror stories I have read.
Is there no way to use a 8.5 10 bolt from older GM's? Is it that difficult to get it to work on these type of vehicles?
There are a bunch of racers including myself running a 8.5 10 bolt housing with the tubes welded and have aftermarket high performance guts in them running deep in the 10's. Why cant you guys do this?

Obviously if I new the answer, I would not have posted this.
