It seems like the only lid option is SLP. I liked the carbon fiber lid they sold back in the day, but I guess they don't make it anymore. But anyways, are there any other options besides the SLP? Is the SLP good? Thanks!

SLP fits better than alot of the other lids with their newer design. Also they are much more durable than the MTI lid and dont crack. A really good option but one you will likely pay about 300 for is an SLP BlackWing lid..

SLP is good.
Speed Inc usually has the best price on the SLP lids.. http://www.speedinc.com/catagory.cfm?catagory=Induction

SLP fits good for me. Got mine from Maryland Speed (sponsor here) for like $89. They shipped it the same day.

I just put on a Granitelli one from Summit. I had to use a heat gun to get it to fit how I wanted, other then that it was perfect. Only 66 bucks new.

Is the Blackwing SLP lid that much better than a regular SLP. I already have an SLP, but would it be worth the extra money getting a blackwing? Also i saw in a HPP magazine that modifying the stock one is a good option.

the blackwing isnt much better than the regular slp if at all performance wise. its taller and its an OEM part so it fits amazing.

Definitely not worth the cost, it's just rare and people act like it's gold or some shit.

^ This. The fitment is stocklike and it looks like the stock lid except it is smooth underneith so it performs like an aftermarket lid. From What I have seen the majority of people who really want them are people who have low mileage show cars that like to keep as much of it stock like. But just for your average F body I really don't see it being worth 300+ dollars, especially since there is increase in performance over a normal aftermarket lid
