Here's why I didn't take ' when an ability instructs you to perform a maneuver, you perform the Execute Maneuver step' into account when making my answer. The rule itself reads: " When an ability instructs a ship to execute a specific maneuver, it resolves only the “Execute Maneuver” step" (emphasis added).

SLAM doesn't instruct you to perform a specific maneuver the same way that Daredevil or other Maneuver-based actions do. There are a large range of maneuvers which fit under the umbrella of SLAM (especially now that we have Burnout Slam in play). As such, I would argue SLAM does not instruct you to perform a specific maneuver, and as such, it does not re-enter the loop (which includes Check Pilot Stress).

It's not intuitive, but I feel like, if read raw, it works the way I originally pointed out.
