The options above and beyond the base level SS options (really just badges) included:
**Suspension of Bilstein or Koni DA w/springs to compliment them ('02 model);
**345 engine HP option to include the SLP/Blackwing intake and the SLP exhaust;
**HP rear diff by **** (I forget the other maker other than Torsen);
Maybe others too. I'd have to look at my literature. IAE, any SLP options would be included on a right door jamb sitcker.

Base SS got badges, hood, spoiler, 17 x 9 wheels, 275/40-17 tires, stiffer springs, IIRC heavier sway bars and a freer flowing exhaust.
SLP offered: Bilstein suspension (bilstein shocks, progressive rate springs, 1LE rear LCA & PHB, 35mm front 21mm rear sway bar, gusseted front sway bar brackets), 1LE suspension in '01 & '02, auburn diff, chrome wheels, performance exhaust, embroidered floor mats, key fobs/dash plaque, car cover and stuff I'm probably forgetting.
To complicate matters, the '96/'97 stuff is different from the LS1 stuff, and the LS1 stuff was changed for '01 & '02.
