@BR2+: Yes, Chevrolet continued putting their 7.4 liter V8 in pickup trucks and suvs until 1997. It was usually found in the C and K Series 2500 and 3500 pickups. But they offered a Silverado 1500 with the 454 as a performance package in the early 90s. This inspired Ford to make the F150 SVT Lightning.

@Shaggy
It's in the link. They tested it. Maybe the power is underrated by the manufacturer.

What's wrong with adding pick up trucks to this site? I hope they add more. But honestly, this truck couldn't finish the 1/4 mile in 15.8 seconds falling from 1/4 above the ground. It'd need a power to weight ratio of around 13 LBS per horsepower, The Silverado 454 SS has 17.4.
