I'm thinking OHC, 4-valve, direct injection. If they're putting that in ordinary Impalas, albeit 3.6L V6's, why not put the same setups on V8's, right? So a 5.7L V8 ought to be able to provide a durable 500+ horsepower, without forced induction. Tuners could probably coax over 600HP, at the expense of longevity.
Given we've seen some blown stock motors in recent years, adding a supercharger to such a 4-V, direct injected motor will probably offer some obscene horsepower
