The Chevrolet 454 SS is one of the most impressive Chevy trucks of all time. However, Chevrolet only produced its short bed, single cab Silverado C1500-based sport truck for four model years: 1990-1993. As the 454 SS name implies, the truck featured a prominent member of the Chevrolet big block engine family under the hood.

One of the first performance-oriented pickups, the 454 SS featured the good-old-fashioned brute force of a big-block engine fitted to the smallest, lightest pickup platform possible, and beefed up accordingly. This combination provided an extraordinary power-to-weight ratio that gave this truck its legendary performance status.
