Default true ss or clone

ok so i bought a 1996 camaro today and was wounder how you could tell if its a fake or not.
i have the two slp stickers on the driver side door ss badges on front finders and on the back and the dual exaust out the same side of the car but no slp logo on the ash tray or in the glove box..
it does have the ram air hood set up and it is a v8 5.7
i will try and post pics on tues or so if time lets me if there are any spots i need to check or if anyone has a link to something that may help please let me know. if its fake or not i cant see how i have lived with out a v8 for so long last v8 car was a 89 camaro rs i bought in high school..

thanks for the info a head of time and if i posted in the wrong place feel free to screw with me just go easy

Check the RPO codes, sticker is either on the driver door or glove box, if you have the code R7T then I believe you have an SS.

you could probably check the VIN with a dealer or shop or something too.
