Umm, smack that person upside the head.

Many 10 bolt rears came with a posi differential from the factory, and it's quite simple to add one to an open rear...

My immediate reaction was "Why the F not?"

AFAIK, pretty much every rear end ever produced by GM had or has a limited slip unit that could be installed in it.

the question is.....why. you can find people selling their 10bolts cheap as hell when they upgrade, and you will be able to upgrade to rear disk brakes at the same time.
