2004 SEMA Show


Following the time-honored muscle car formula, the Chevrolet speed mavens somehow shoe-horned a 6.0L LS2 V-8 into the tight Colorado engine bay. This compact, extended cab pickup boasts the full 400-horsepower LS2 shared with the Corvette and SSR, backed by a heavy-duty 4L70-E four-speed automatic transmission with a floor shifter. This formidable power is routed to a 9.5-inch rear axle with a locking differential for added traction and a short 3.73:1 rear axle ratio for rapid acceleration. The front disc brakes measuring over 12 inches that are sourced from the full-size Chevrolet Silverado; rear disc brakes from the Chevrolet TrailBlazer. Clearly the exterior has been thoroughly transformed with a complete body kit, fascias, grille, and tonneau cover for an extreme makeover. Slammed to the ground, the Colorado wears 20-inch Silverado SS rims.
