Default SLP Corvette?

I just saw this weeks Motorweek episode on PBS featuring an SLP prepped Camaro called the 575. Its a hairy rascal. 0-60-3.8 sec. 11.9 1/4mi, base price around 57K. Its a pretty serious ride fro somone with deep pockets. Its also a limited addition model so its definetely gonna be rare. Anyway my question is has there ever been an SLP prepped Corvette (C4 or C5)? I dont ever remember one but its possible that I may have missed it.

SLP offers some packages for Corvettes - go to their web site and I'd bet you will find some info on them.

pretty expensive for a camaro get a c5 and bolt on all that horsepower for less than 57 k and you'll be driving a real sports car

I've been following SLP stuff for a long time (I have an F-body daily driver),well since 1995 when they released the first mass production Firehawk. They didn't do anything like this on a Corvette for factory release.
