Since most, if not all, Corvette related production will be going away for the 2014 MY, there will be a lot of potential at the plant (there has been for a while now but thats beside the point).
It isn't a capacity or profitability issue that restricts the sale of the LS7 in an OEM vehicle. It is the EPA
