My latest project.. '92 454SS 408LS w/twin 67's

Looks great, SW. That's some serious power.

Why start with a 454SS truck though? Is there more to these trucks than the 454 engine?

How did you lower it? Good looking truck.

[glassman]

Any thing done to the suspension and brakes to make em more "slot car esque"?

Love those trucks!!

I just have a thing for them. They also have a heavy duty 14 bolt rear end, 480LE trans, 6k Rpm factory tach, 110mph speedo and the '91-'93s are super rare.

We just didn't have time with Aunts and Uncles and Cousins and out of town grade school friends -- in other words - herding cats! In other words - there just was no more time in that weekend. OMG!



Truck must be a friggin' beast! And wow! What fantastic looking work they did! First rate craftsmanship there!

Damn! I'm sure we will see you guys soon!

When I do the 4 Link, I will do mini tub, big sways and big brakes but it's still a truck..

I had white '92 454SS. Great truck! I bet you at least doubled the fuel economy with that swap! My stock truck got about 10-12 mpg.

Thanks SW. I figured there was a little more to them than just having the 454 under the hood. I've always thought the trucks looked great, but I know very little about them.

Great project SW. I like how you go back and re-imagine your old favorites.
