I'm pretty sure the GM engineers are being conservative, but it is up to the consumer to take a chance. My 98 Camaro SS trans was only rated up to 400 lb/ft torque, but it handled well pass 450 when I upgraded it. And never had a problem, even with a 3000 stall torque converter. But then again, that was just an auto trans. Not sure about manual trans.
