410 hp package w/ David Hamburger's signature under hood

Post by bpgifford » Sun Jun 22, 2014 12:44 pm

I have a 95 Firehawk #332, which I purchased in Nov. This car was advertised as having an SLP add-on, which was installed by a pontiac dealership in Detroit in 2000. I have receipts from the dealership showing work done. It was the 410+ hp package offered through SLP for LT1-LT4-& LS1 engines. At that time, instillation was inspected by SLP to varify for warrenty, and under the hood on passenger side, there's David Hambergers signature. I've seen this on just a limited few 95 Firehawks, one had the supercharger add-on and another 95 TA had his signature on the right shock tower, which also had the S/C add-on. Any idea how many of these cars got the 410hp package, or got David Hamburgers signature? Just wondering how rare this is, love my car and glad it's summer so I can drive it!!!

I have no idea about the 410 hp package. SLP might know.

As for David's signature, he has been good enough to sign many cars at various shows. May not have anything to do with the original installation.

Ed and Dave Hamburger's signature under the hood is doubly cool!

The 410hp add-on just means it is a modified Firehawk. It has nothing to do with the Firehawk package, it could be added to any f-body. It also doesn't factor into rarity or value since it was not a Firehawk package add-on meaning you couldn't order a Firehawk with that package, it was an aftermarket add-on.

Dave and Ed have probably signed countless shock towers and under hoods over the years, especially at the old SLP Customer Appreciation Day events they used to do.

They both signed a bunch in Norwalk at the Firehawk Rally too, along with Jim Mattison, Jim Wangers and others as well.
