Yenko Silverado

[silverWS6]

Have you fellas seen this? I think it's pretty cool! Big power justifies the Yenko name, imo. Limited numbers really suck, and the price tag is crazy! Comes with a warranty though, so that's nice. Would be cool if it was a ccsb though. 

 

800hp scsb Silverado for nearly 100k!

Yeah I've seen it. I bet it's a fast and I mean fast truck. But I don't care how much horsepower it comes with, I would never pay 100k for that thing lol. For that much money I'd build my own and make way more power than that. But it is still pretty cool tho

Never understood the appeal of hot rodding a school bus. 

 

I love it the way it is. Victory Red of course.

Definitely cool!

Different strokes. My brother bought the fastest production America made vehicle in 1979. Little Red Express Truck. Still races it today. It’s runs as quick as it’s allowed without a roll bar. His son in 02 had the quickest 4WD Ram diesel in Texas, mid 10s. It was his daily driver. It’s all good.

Looks like the package is $46k and they provide the motor and a 3yr/36k mile warranty

 

so seems like you could just buy a cheap reg cab and send it to them.

 

800hp is a lot with a warranty

 

Thats a better power to weight ratio than a trackhawk, seems like you could do it for $80k, about the price of a base trackhawk.

 

I’d certainly rather have a trackhawk, but it’s not incredibly unreasonable

[truckguy82]

They listed the weight at 7200lbs lol, thats the gvrw

Seems like you buy the regular cab standard bed must be Z71 4 wheel drive . They change engine and beef up tranny and torque convertor change. Big brakes and different tires and wheels plus significant interior change out including seats .Really quite a package considering warranty is intact . Bet their no 98 mph. cut off on it neither lol.

There’s no such thing anymore...

 

From Specialty Vehicle Engineering looks like you can get a Yenko dbl or crew as well as it lists either leather or houndstooth package for front & rear seats.

 

They also offer a 500hp 5.3L, 575hp 6.2L, and 800hp 6.8L in non Yenko trims. I’d be curious to know how much the Yenko badging adds over the same non Yenko package?

I might be wrong but believe Yenko is only going to build 25. Can you imagine taking a unsuspecting service advisor for a ride under complaint truck appears to accelerate unusually Slow.

I am with you 100% on this. Old or new, the only proper hot rod truck is a SCSB.
