Old Enough To Know Better Too Old To Care
Welcome to the site!!

Cherry the 454 out and sell it. Those things are bringing large money in good condition. Take your profits and buy you a late model.

The first upgrade you need to make are the brakes. I test drove a 454 ss after years of wanting one and dropped the idea like a hot potato after the beast refused to stop.

Welcome to LS1truck! A 454SS may or may not have been a good decision, depending on the condition of the truck. What are your future plans for the truck? Since it is a special edition vehicle, it would be worth more if you retained the original drivetrain. What year truck is it? The 1990 model had the 230hp/385lb.ft and the later models had the 255hp/405lb.ft...
