SLP lid
hey guys I need help, I have been seeing lt1 cars with SLP lids in them. So I have been trying to find some research on this but no luck it all comes back to LS power plants. Has anyone else seen this?

there's a hole in the side of the lid for IAT, most people use a 4" rubber ferno coupler (get at Lowe's/Home Depot) to go from MAF to TB, which you just poke a hole in for the opti vent.
Edit: i have a lid if you're looking for one. I don't have the radiator cover that it slips into though.

awesome. I've been wanting to switch to a lid setup forever just for the decluttering aspect as well as ease of filter maintenance. I never wanted to do the hacking into the metal part though to make it fit under LT1 stockish hoods.
sunoco wide? hmmm.. knew there was a taller one but not a wider one. got any pics of this to share? What did you have to trim to make it work? I've been looking at the sunoco hood for a while and its also on my list of things coming... just want to know how much bigger this wide one is from the 'normal'.

It's not actually wider, it's just taller. On the underside of the hood near the front, they remove some of the bracing and cover it so it's not just unfinished. If you call and talk to Jeanie ask her to do one like Butch and Chris. It's been a few years since they did mine. The only trimming that needs to be done is on the radiator cover/lower air box to fit the contour of the core support. The LS has a flat support where ours has a bit of a high spot. Everything else is bolt on.

With a VFN Sunoco hood, and trimming the bottom of the LS1 radiator support, I was able to make the lid setup work. I also had VFN do the extra trimming of the hood before sending it hood to me. Here are a few pics for reference.
