Both a traction lock posi and a Detroit Locker are offred for 8 inch differentials.
An 8 inch will withstand about 400 HP.

I should be a little more specific for those of you with little time to browse the currie site. http://www.currieenterprises.com/html/custom/8inch/rearend8ford.htm

It looks like the "third member assembly" part is under construction at the moment, but typical posi assemblies run near $800

Mustangs Plus has them, a little more pricey.
