Question Will the rear end hold up?

I just got a real good deal on new ET Drags 26x10x15. I have never run slicks before and not sure how much boost I will be able to launch on. On my 295 -50's the car went 12.9@110 with a 1.9 short time. That was on 21psi and 100 octane, alky and a street chip. I plan on running 25-27psi 114 and a JL race chip.

With my combo will the rear end hold up?

Yes, don't worry about it until you are cutting some 1.5X 60' times, then I'd put axles in it for a little extra insurance.
