A ballpark figure?
Anywhere from 200HP to 1500HP.
Seriously though...your question is sort of empty. There have been 1,350HP LT1s using an OEM block with splayed mains, but NOTHING else was even remotely stock. Heads, crank, rods, pistons, heads, etc. Are you just asking how much the block can handle or something else?

Technically speaking, the powdered metal rods were rated by GM at 450 HP (all 94+ LT1s came with these rods.) But as stated above its a bit tricky to answer that question.
I heard the LT1 is ****, just take it to the junkyard before you waste money on it 
Haha, seriously though, you can make awesome power on a stock bottom end. 400rwhp is certainly possible with some of the better setupds.
