SLP Engineering was based in Mich, where they put the SS's together. SLP Performance is a second division that deals in the aftermarket. Engineering was a Tier 1 supplier, like Delphi, Bose, etc etc. Once Fbodies stopped being pumped out, Engineering had nothing to do.
As for GM not knowing what SS ment back then, I guess they just need to make big block engines with big carbs, a 4spd and a 12 bolt huh?
For the 3 trillionth time, SS means a lot more to cars NOW then it ever has. How many Chevelles, Camaros, and Novas were shipped to Nurburing for tuning the suspension?
I forgot, if it isnt RWD car and doesnt have V8, its not an SS.
I gotta put that next to if it doesnt have hood scoops and dual side exhaust, its not a GTO.
