Corvette Stingray LT1 Engine to be Challenge for Tuners?

The C7 Corvette Stingray engine, the LT1, will be one of GM’s most impressive mass produced engine ever, outputting 450 HP and 450 lb-ft of torque from 6.2 liters of displacement.

But, according to some tuners, it may be closer to the limits of its performance envelope in production form than the LS. In this article, Ken Lingenfelter (of Lingenfelter Performance Engineering), explains why he thinks that tuners may not be able to squeeze much more than 700HP out of the LT1.
