I believe that the SLP is a GM piece w/ a price mark up.

A real LS6 intake has a flat bottom and no 'X' bracing between the runners going to the heads.

What is wrong with the SLP one? As long as you arent getting an LS1 intake, I wouldn't be concerned.

SLP have the option of either having an EGR provision or w/o. SLP LS6 IM=GM LS6 IM, FYI.

QFT!

They are the same. Unless you get the egr provision.

I ordered a ls6 intake from speed inc, and it came in a slp box, but it has a GM part # on it.
