blackwing is who made the lid. same ppl who make the corvette blackwing intake setups. SLP just sells them. pretty much you nailed it, a lid is a lid is a lid.

yea, right now i'm in between jobs as well. i just got hired at a new gym near my house but it doesn't open for a month and a half 
til then i'm damn near broke
if you already have the SLP lid, i'd just stick with it. no reason to switch lids unless you know you can sell the SLP to someone and get a pretty good chunk of money for it.

SLP lid is the aftermarket lid....if its SLP embossed the same color as the rest then it is a SLP SS which there were...-and if its the SLP lid with white letters its the other aftermarket....one came form the factory the other had to be purchased....no difference as well
