Well, GM isn't going to put much thought into people modifying their cars, or at least not advertise that. Too many warranty scenarios from that stand point.

However, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. GM transmissions have been well known for handling more torque and power than the pamphlet might suggest. Those numbers are it's max capacity, those numbers are more like it's suggested capacity for reliability and longevity.

Of course, if you are concerned about it being behind your supercharged LT1, just keep an eye out at your local Car-Part and wait for a ZL1 to show up that the driver couldn't handle.
