28 spline assy's are good up to around 300 h.p. 31 spline will handle more power. This all depends on the gear ratio and tire size. Plus how well the tires hook up.
For street use, stock parts will do the job. For the track, It would be best to build with stronger parts.

I have a 31 spline assembly with Moser axles. I have about 450 hp and leave on a 150 shot with a 10.5 tire, no problems as of yet.
