Right now I'm pretty much in the same boat. I have 2.73's with an A4, and I'm trying to decide if I should get a rear or a transmission first.
2.73's are a major downfall, especially on an LS1 without an aftermarket converter. I have seen your dyno numbers on LS1tech, don't even bother throwing deeper gears, just save up for a 12 bolt or 9 inch. As for the Tranny, your 4L65 is a tad stronger than my 4L60, so you might get away with it for a while. I am having CPT in NJ build me a manual valve body 700R right now, coupled with a fuddle TQ converter. I have been in conversation with Frank for a while, he has a lot of confidence in his trannies. Hopefully this will withstand the power I want to put through it in the future, if it doesn't, hello TH400. -

Yeah, I think the 10 bolt will go first, as they're a bit notorious for that. Plus, I'd like to get a torque converter installed at the same time as the transmission, and that would guarantee the destruction of the stock rear.
There are quite a few stock 10 bolts in the 11-10 second range, I am hopeing mine will be one of those.
