Please also note that SLP Performance Parts (based in Toms River, NJ) and SLP Engineering (located in Troy, MI until it closed earlier this year) are separate companies entirely.
.
Why is it that i have a catalog from SLP Performance Parts that lists Troy Michigan, Charlotte North Carolina, LaSalle Quebec, Lachine Quebec and St. Henri Quebec as Slp Performance Parts Facilities.Troy Michigan is listed as the companys engineering research and development. The catalog sure doesn't list them as two totally different companies. My parts came from the Toms River NJ facilities.

Because back in early 1998 (the year of that catalog), they were one company. Later that year, SLP Performance Parts, Inc. was split and incorporated independently. We have not shipped that catalog since 2001, when the 2001 catalog was printed.

iv read through all of these slp zl 402 posts, and havent found 1 person who is actualy using this motor yet. Where is the first hand experience? Also, i find it funny with out any first hand experience, there are alot of nay sayers about this motor, for what its worth i jut found out about this today and i called SLP and they answered every question i had including what parts are in it.

So who has one all ready?

So what parts are in it then? i want to make sure if i'm buying a motor it's gonna be able to handle a power adder even on the high comp. motor. doesn't seem like a bad motor but are the internal parts going to be able to with stand the amount added given power like boost or NOS. anyone can build a forged motor, it's how MUCH can it handle not what will it produce. thats what i want to know, HOW can i get out of it, w/out it blowing

Buy an ls2 block and build an aluminum 402 and save 85 lbs.
