Default 25th Anniversary SS LSX454

With it being the 25th anniversary of the SS 454, it's fitting that we try and have this done for SEMA in less than 6 months. Luckily there's a lot of great companies on board but like all SEMA cars, I'm sure it'll come down to the very last hour.

Sorry, I have a few other pics of the engine and tranny but this site won't allow me to post them for some reason.

When I was younger and dumber, I almost bought a 454SS, but my inner redneck recoiled at the idea of a 2wd pickup truck.

Now, as a much more refined and educated man, I find myself hating that I passed up the opportunity when I had it.

I would love to build a pro touring 454SS with a high compression LSX454 and individual throttle bodies. Definitely will be paying attention to this.
