internal - existing or situated within the limits or surface of something: as a (1) : situated near the inside of the body (2) : situated on the side toward the median plane of the body b : of, relating to, or occurring on the inside of an organized structure.

IMO, webster's holds more credibility than an LS1tech moderator, but that's just me talking.

also, the LS1tech bolt-on director has absolutely no authority in any race organizations. his authority ends with this website, and as helpful as this website is, it has no impact in real life racing.
