Re: 90 ss 454 street truck
That looks great. I remember sitting in one of those in the showroom of the dealership when I was like 11 or 12 years old, and saying "i'm gonna have one of these some day".

Re: 90 ss 454 street truck
Give it a little more time and people will post to your thread. I myself had a 1990 454SS, but had to sell it for all those wonderful reasons. You are doing a lot of the stuff that I was doing/wanted to do to mine before I sold it. Your truck looks great, just keep at it.
One thing I would suggest is to change the air cleaner to an open element one. I have seen lots of issues with those.

Re: 90 ss 454 street truck
Love the 454SS trucks! Got a nice one there! Keep up the work on it and post some pics up when you get the new wheels mounted!
What transmission did you put in? A rebuilt TH400 or something? |

Re: 90 ss 454 street truck
Always one of my favorite trucks. A guy in our car club just picked up one last year. 56 thousand miles original owner. I also like the Indy pace trucks. Don't see many of those either.

I was a little concerned when I thought you were keeping the old "peanut port" heads so I was quite relieved when I saw the cylinder head swap. ![]() K

Re: 90 ss 454 street truck
Looks good. My dad bought a '90 454SS new, I was 13. He used to let me drive it on backroads on the weekends. Always liked those trucks and almost considered getting one instead of a C10.
