2022 YENKO SILVERADO SEES POWER BUMP TO 850 HORSEPOWER, READY FOR ANYTHING

The Package Gains 50 Horsepower From The 2021 Model

2022 Yenko SC Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Lowered

The Yenko S/C Silverado is back and better than ever for the 2022 model year. Brought to us by Speciality Vehicle Engineering (SVE), the same company that also builds the radically powerful Yenko Camaro and GMC Canyon-based Syclone, the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado Yenko/SC package comes in both standard Lowered and Off-Road packages.

Only 50 units of each will be made. Pricing is expected to start north of $80,000 USD. Expect the trucks to be on display at the 2021 SEMA Show taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Supercharged LT1

The LT1-based engine in the 2022 Silverado Yenko/SC utilizes a forged twisted crankshaft, rods, and aluminum pistons. To add in some deep breathing capabilities, the CNC cylinder heads have been ported and polished – a high-flow intake, stainless steel headers, and high flow catalytic converters with a high-flow exhaust system are added. An upgraded 8-speed automatic transmission is also installed to handle the ferocity of 850 supercharged horsepower and 800 lb-ft of torque. Keeping operating temps stable is an upgraded cooling system.

2022 Yenko Silverado Off-Road Package

The Silverado Yenko Off-Road version just doesn’t look the part, it comes with the correct competes to play the part as well. Starting with a BDS 4-inch lift-kit, supported by Fox shocks and a set of 20-inch custom wheels wrapped in a set of Nitto Ridge Grappler off-road tires, the Yenko can conquer any terrain it encounters. The Off-Road version also comes complete with a heavy-duty rear sway bar and HD recoil traction bars. To add to the off-road mystique, black fender flares, black sports bar with spotlights, and retractable side steps are added.

2022 Yenko Chevrolet Silverado Lowered Package

If you’re into the more sporty look, then (SVE) can cover you there too. The 2022 Silverado Yenko Lowered version comes with a sport-tuned suspension package that lowers the truck 2-inches in the front and 4-inches in the rear. You also get a set of Fox shocks with this suspension and a set of 22-inch 6-spoke rims riding on Nitto NT420V tires.

Options, Colors, And More

Both trucks share a custom front grille and fascia, and per customer request, more features can be added or subtracted to fit the customer’s personality and needs from the interior to the exterior. The famous Yenko/SC graphics on the side of the vehicle will be added, but the Off-Road and Lowered models will each sport different design patterns. Each muscle truck will come with a 36,000-mile limited warranty.
