Chevrolet enthusiasts have been complaining for quite a while that General Motors doesn't offer a high-performance pickup truck that could rival the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. Well, their wish is about to come true thanks to Lingenfelter and Southern Comfort Automotive, who have developed the most potent version of the 2014 Silverado yet - the Reaper.
Fitted with a new front fascia, which includes a a high clearance bumper, grille and hood, the truck sits on 17-inch beadlock wheels wrapped in off-road tires and uses a Fox Racing suspension system, making it ready for a desert raid. There's also an integrated floodlight system and a reinforced plate, while power is provided by a Lingenfelter supercharged V8 engine connected to a Corsa exhaust system.

The specialist is also offering custom exterior graphics, a bespoke gauge package and stitched headrests. No word on pricing yet, but the conversion kits will become available through select Chevrolet dealerships that sell Southern Comfort trucks later this year.

Stay tuned for more details on the 2014 Chevrolet Reaper next week. Meanwhile, you can have a look at the truck's dedicated website.
