Ryan returns fire as his 1990 Chevy 454 SS also gets dropped down into the weeds with its very own lowering kit, new brakes, wheels and tires. Matching stance for stance with Kevin’s Lightning, Ryan’s getting his big block Chevy ready to go head to head with the Ford in our MuscleTrux series. Also, we’ll show you how to breathe new life into your worn out GMC or Chevrolet truck by doing a simple, hand tools only engine swap and it’s easier than you think!
