Default LS1 motorsport lid or SLP?

Which do you like better? I'm looking for the cheapest lid with the most performance.

I like my LS1 Motorsports lid, its well made and fits nicely..

The new TSP lid should be very nice, if i see some decent gains i might switch to that one

i took a $160 shaft when i paid for my granatelli lid. Way overpriced when compared to the other lids out there but still a good fitting quality piece.

I like my LS1 Motorsports lid. If nothing else, LS1 Motorsports has the best customer service I have come across yet. They have fair prices and ship quickly.

They have gone out of their way to get me what I wanted more than once - I always go to them first.

Another vote for the LS1motorsports here. Inexpensive and good improvement.

I had a GMS lid for one day - hated it. I then got the LS1Motorsports lid. I loved that lid! I had to take it off when I supercharged the car, which was the only bad thing about going forced induction.
