SLP 400hp kit for Ls1

Has anyone done this if so how was it?Does it reach 400hp on the dyno,or is that 400hp not at the wheels?Are the headers good?And has anyone done a ls6 conversion plus the slp 400hp kit?

Re: SLP 400hp kit for Ls1

that kit is good for probably 375hp at the wheels, if you have all the bolt ons you may be able to edge it a little higher.
typically with bolt ons and just the LS6 cam guys are seeing 360rwhp, add another 15hp with the heads (unported).
obviously some guys will get more...but for average gains...that's a close approximation.

but for the price...as i stated in your other thread...there are much better choices.

for significantly less you can do just a cam swap and with boltons and a good tune be at (or over depending on the cam) 400rwhp. i'm currently sitting at 400 at the wheels with just the cam, and Kraest put down 415rwhp through a vette driveline.

SLP headers are built great....but have the WORST ground clearance of any header brand. for the money...assuming you want stainless...look into QTP or Kooks. cheaper look for some coated Hookers, Pacesetters or Flowtechs

....and if your looking to forego the SLP kit and do standard bolt ons, I have plenty of pics of my JetHot LT's that I can email you if you are interested in getting a birdseye view before you purchase.

My Mufflex ORY is supposed to be here today (4/5) and I will be taking plenty of pics of that as well.

Let me know.....

I paid $489 for them and shipping was free. Brand new in the box. The sale is still going on, however, they are not a board sponsor. You have a PM.
