you are reading too much into it.

how much power does the Z06 make? ~500hp.... the ZR1 makes around 650hp.... CTSv makes around 550hp....

do you think GM is going to put a transmission in there that can juuuuuuuuuuuuust barely support the existing power of the motor?
700r4 would be a shining example. Used in Syclone and Typhoons and was easily detroyed. In fact they rated power output with the motors used in a lot of 700r4 applications to make sure they didn't exceed the trans limits on paper.
