1990 Chevrolet Silverado SS 454

1990 - 93 Chevrolet 454SS
It’s true the 454 big-block V-8 engine dates back to 1970, but for trucks, the most fitting home for the Big Kahuna of
Chevrolet’s engine lineup was undoubtedly the 1990-93 Chevrolet 454SS truck.
 The formula was simple -- the biggest engine in the smallest truck.  The 454SS was based on the C1500 regular-cab, short bed truck,
with some beefed-up drivetrain components from the 3/4 and 1-ton trucks to handle the engine’s 405 lb-ft of torque.
Its maximum power output of 255 hp seems ridiculously tame by today’s standards, especially from such large displacement,
but in the early ’90s, it was the hottest hauler you could get.
