part of what isn't be discussed here is the fact that if you go ahead and buy an "X" engined car from GM; and then go out and spend money at "Y" tuner shop...
you're not spending money at GM anymore.
it may seem like a bonkers idea to some of you guys who love ripping your brand new cars apart (and given the money you have to spend, no one can really judge you for it) but there is a business case for GM to engineer these new Gen 6 (is it 6?) v8's to be built to the near peak of their capability.
in engineering; everything is foreseeable to a certain degree...
so don't be surprised that once the ECM is figured out; blocks start blowing up (or other critical components) unless HEAVY modification ends up being done to the engine.
at that point/cost; you might as well just buy the hi-po version of that "X" engined car... you guessed: from GM.
