What brand of gears do I buy?

I don't know much about rearends but I do know that I have blown this one twice. I have mickey moused it too many times and now I want to fix it right. I have a 91 camaro Z28 and it has 3.42 open rear. It is starting to whine again so on monday I am getting them to pull an axle to see if the are 28 spline. If they are I am going to buy a set of gears and a zexel torsen posi unit form SLP.

The question is, am I going about this right and what brand of gears would you buy for strength? I was thinking about a richmond set but I see that SLP sells them too. I don't think they are as strong as the richmonds though.

the slps are fine. some people say that the richmonds are noisy. its all how and where you get em set up at. gm performance parts has some good gears too. any of these 3 would be ok, just get em set up professionally if you havent done this before.

I am definitely not doing it myself! I just want the strongest gears I can get...I am not concerned about the noise.
