Edelbrock fits a 2.3 under the hood of the Vette. I think GM could have done it too. But I think they chose to revise the 1.7 and increase it's efficiency and output for the purpose of having an engine that gets into power exceptionally quickly. Probably for cost savings too. I could be wrong but like I said, a 2300 would have fit.
