GMPP are re-releasing the ZL1 427 in a limited 50th anniversary run of 427 units. :D

OK, so I don't have any intention of buying one, it was just an anti-climax to read that it will only be producing 480hp, or 1.125hp/ci.
With an assumed 12:1 c/r and today's solid roller cams, how easy is it to make 1.3hp/ci/550hp?
Remember, this is a crate engine that has no full exhaust, alternator, smog pump, or anything else today's SAE J1349 would force it to run on the dyno.
Does 480hp sound a little lame to you, or am I expecting too much?
Maybe the warranty has something to do with it..
