Default Ticking time bomb G80 8.625

So have dedicated caring owners had that problem?
Has anybody heard of it?
I used to drive a 2001silverado 1500 5.3 Z71 with 17" rims and 33" tires. Never had a problem with (over torquing the G80) in that truck?

ive blown 2 of them in older blazers etc,doing burnouts etc,just rough housing. They were intended for traction during low acceleration out of a ditch,mudhole,rain etc. Not for beating on them.
